Project Procurement Management

Master Project Procurement for Project Success
Not all project procurements are the same. Unless the project carefully assesses the items it will make versus the items it will buy, and then adequately plans for these purchases, the risks of performance will increase. Project procurements are simply sub-projects, which need to be managed well, not blindly delegated to an independent organization to buy for the project.
