Assignment scenario
‘Before a suitable project strategy can be selected, there are many variables that need to be
considered.’ Masterman (2002)
Procurement is a phrase which illustrates the activities commence by a client who is looking for to
bring about the construction or refurbishment of a building. It is a method which offers an explanation
to the query: "how do I get my project built?" Nearly all projects, clients will initiate the procurement
method by planning a project strategy. The strategy involves considering up the profits, risks and
finances constraints of a project to conclude what the most suitable procurement method is, and what
contractual planning will be essential. Through each project, the client’s concerns capture on time,
cost and quality in relative to both the design and construction of the project.
