      Thanks for that reply Anny. No RFT’s means avoiding Contract A implications which is advisable for the majority of time.

        Hello Laura,
        Thanks for the introductory post, it was good to meet you yesterday.
        Its great that you experience the entire spectrum of the procurement cycle.
        Schools typically have a very tight time window for maintenance or construction during school breaks.
        Do you coordinate with the Facilities staff and customize RFX scoring to emphasize Schedule?
        Regards,
        Chris

          Hello Dona,
          Thanks for the introductory post, it was good to meet you today.
          Two years of procurement experience with increasing complexity and building on an Operations background makes you very valuable to CSRD.
          “Layering” knowledge and building expertise with confidential informed advice to guide is the best and safest way to learn public procurement.
          Is there any one particular area of the procurement cycle / process you either enjoy or dread?
          Regards,
          Chris

            Hello Linza
            Thanks for the introductory post, it was good to meet you today.
            Your comment about unpredictability is interesting and it speaks to the importance of WHO is involved in Planning.
            Procurement has a role in guiding users about outcomes and how early those conversations start is critical. Last minute launches…..rarely end well!
            I encourage you to record “lessons learned” from each procurement and share the good and bad of those learnings during future Planning.
            As you move into leadership ( if that is your path) this collaborative Planning subject becomes a huge focus for success.
            Regards,
            Chris

              Hello Colisha,
              Thanks for the introductory post, it was good to meet you today.
              Your work appears more specialized than perhaps other Procurement positions.
              Do you separate Contract Amendments from Change Orders or are they treated the same?
              Regards,
              Chris

                Hello Diana,
                Thanks for the introductory post, it was good to meet you today.
                Your role sounds dynamic with lots of relationships building required.
                In your work, do you have a Procurement Intake Form document or electronic process developed to organize and standardize?
                Regards,
                Chris

                  Hello Anny,
                  Thanks for the introductory post, it was good to meet you today.
                  RFB’s (Request for Bid) documents are rare in my experience and I curious about your organizations use of them.
                  do RFB’s replace RFQ’s and/ or Request for Tenders in the Yukon environment?
                  Regards,
                  Chris
