Buying Wisely - Tender Preparation and Evaluation
Training Course: A comprehensive overview of the competitive tender process for buyers.
Don’t miss this comprehensive coverage of tender preparation training. This course will give you the strategic thinking and tools to attract quality proposals, knowledge to conduct efficient evaluations, and insights into getting the best value for money.
About the Course
The vast majority of organisations tender out some aspect of their work, be it maintenance, logistics, production services, IT, business processes or corporate services.
Choosing which providers your organisation will depend upon for many years is a critical activity. Vigilant selection delivers the best match. That is if your organisation truly knows itself and what it wants. The offers received reflect the quality and clarity of information you provide. In other words, ‘garbage in – garbage out.’
Successful tendering is not an auction; it is about getting the lowest price with a superior supplier under a fair contract with sustainable solutions. This hands-on tender preparation and evaluation course will deliver the key techniques for successful product and service procurement and tendering designed to assist you in determining the most effective techniques for your organisation.
The training is presented by Dr. Sara Cullen, a globally recognised expert in tendering and contracting. She has taken the practical experiences of over 140 organisations, and two decades of practice, to develop this course that will enable you to:
- pick the right supplier(s),
- for the right reasons, and
- get the right deal
