2. OVER VIEW
Successful project delivery starts with an assessment of the best
procurement strategy to adopt – and that requires analysis of the
organisation’s capabilities and risk management strategies. Many
disputes can be avoided by better attention to key elements
within the tender and contract documentation. The contractual
obligations arising from the tender process need to be recognised
in order to protect the principal.
The difficulties of designing and applying supplier selection criteria
must be mastered in order to get the best outcomes. Strategies to
recognise potential for disputes, and their avoidance, provide
great benefits. This course addresses all of the above aspects of
the contract lifecycle. It is practically orientated with interactive
workshops and exercises covering most aspects of the material
presented, providing an effective learning opportunity.
