Market engagement
Take the package to the right suppliers, not just the nearest ones.
Measured packages are issued to the supply chain so current, comparable quotations can be gathered against the same scope.
Procurement
A quote is not a procurement decision
Once the measured BoQ is complete, P4HB can be separately appointed to obtain live supplier pricing and compare the available commercial options.
Where required, P4HB can take the measured information into live pricing, value engineering, procurement, call offs and delivery under a separately agreed scope.
Quotation normalisation
Make sure you are comparing like for like
Scope, specification, exclusions, lead times, payment terms and delivery obligations are aligned so the real commercial position is clear.
Package procurement
Agree the risk before the order is placed.
Scope, commercial controls, responsibilities and exclusions are resolved before commitment, not argued about afterwards.
Scheduled orders & delivery
Buy to the programme, not to panic
Materials are ordered, called off and sequenced against what is actually happening on site.
