During the execution of a construction project, you are tasked with planning and managing the procurement strategy. You must ensure that the strategy optimally aligns with the project objectives, cost constraints, and schedule. What is your best approach for developing this strategy?
Continue using suppliers from past successful projects without seeking additional bids, assuming their services will continue to meet project needs.
Decide on suppliers based solely on the recommendations of the project team without a formal evaluation process.
Gather proposals or bids from multiple suppliers to evaluate and select resources based on cost, schedule, and quality considerations.
Select the supplier with the lowest bid to minimize costs and streamline the procurement process.
Developing the procurement strategy should start with defining resource requirements and identifying potential suppliers who can meet these needs effectively. Gathering proposals or bids allows you to evaluate different suppliers based on cost, quality, and delivery timelines, which is essential for making informed decisions that align with project objectives and constraints. Solely focusing on the lowest bid without considering the reliability and quality, or just relying on past suppliers without current market evaluation, can lead to suboptimal outcomes that may not align with the specific needs of the current project.
