Webinar Recording - Best Value Procurement – Big Picture, Big Impact

Overview

As public buyers, we select vendors for services, works and supplies across sectors such as schools, energy, transport, public space, social protection and health. We determine which vendors are successful, which are not, and we influence their behavior. As such, we are deeply involved in setting and meeting community goals. Buyers should support sustainable economic growth and seek the best life-cycle value for money. We need to understand that choosing offers based on lowest price may conflict with a sustainable, quality community and society as a whole.

After following this workshop it is likely for the purchasing professional to receive      on average more offers per solicitation that in addition better reflect the requested service.
