Course Overview
The selection process is fraught with difficulties: and errors can be costly. So learning the right way to plan the evaluation process, defining the rules, and then applying them in ways that are above reproach, takes organization and skill. Particularly where the process is less about cost/price and more about quality and value for money. This training workshop focuses on this key stage of the procurement process, and also includes the challenging area of including ‘social’ criteria in the evaluation methodology.
This training workshop also focuses on negotiation, and explores the area of win-win and win-lose negotiating, the concepts of BATNA and ZOPA; considers the creation of negotiation objectives; highlights the benefits of a negotiation mandate. You will practices techniques of negotiation, including when to negotiate and when to make concessions. The workshop briefly examines the contract award process and what occurs if a losing bidder challenges the decision.
