1. Project Procurement Management Lecture-8

2. What is Procurement? Project Procurement Management (PPM) includes the processes necessary to purchase or acquire products, services, or results needed from outside the project teams. At some places, it is the Goods, Work or Services (GWS) needed for the project. It also includes the contract management and change control processes required to develop and administer contracts or purchase orders issued by authorized project management team. Project Procurement Management also controls contractual obligations placed on the project team by the contract.

3. How and when do we enter into Project Procurement Management?

4. When do we enter into PPM? When the following things are ready Stakeholder register Activity resource requirement Activity cost estimates Project schedule Risk register

5. Procurement Management Procurement management refers to planning and control of the following Equipment, material or components designed and provided by vendors specifically for the project It may be a portion of a work package or entire work package It may be off-the-shelf (OTS) equipment and components bulk material, like cement, metal piping etc. Consumables items; nails, bolts, lubricants Support equipment for construction, cranes, lifts etc Administrative equipment, computers, project office facilities

6. Procurement of Items Procurement means the activities related to purchase of subcontracted items Procurement items are usually classified as goods, work or services (GWS) Goods represent raw material or produced items (tools/machinery) Work means contracted labor Service means consultation Planning, budgeting, scheduling and follow-up control all fall under procurement management Logistics plan includes everything related to the transport and storage of materials for the projects. GWS items cannot be scheduled to arrive just-in-time (JIT). Provision must be made to store and protect them until they are needed.

7. What is a Contract? It is a legal document between a buyer and a seller. It provides a mutual binding agreement that obligates the seller to provide the specified product, service or result and obligates the buyer to provide monetary or other valuable consideration. The agreement can be simple or complex. A procurement contract will include terms and condition also. A contract can be an agreement, an understanding, a subcontract or a purchase order.

8. Types of Contracts Fixed Price Contract Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Most commonly used where scope is very clear. It can only be changed if the scope changes or there is a change in specifications. Any cost increase is the responsibility of the seller Fixed Price Incentive Fee (FPIF) Price ceiling is set and all costs above the price ceiling are the responsibility of the seller, who is obligated to complete the work. Incentive is related to cost, schedule and or performance. The final contract price is determined after the completion of all work based on the seller’s performance. Fixed Price with Economic Price Adjustment (FPEPA) This happens if the contract is spanned for a considerable period of time. It caters for inflation, cost increase / decrease of specific commodities. It is attached with some reliable financial index. It protects both buyer and seller from external conditions.

9. Types of Contracts Cost-reimbursement Contracts: Cost plus Fixed Fee Contract (CPFF) The seller is reimbursed for all allowable costs for performing the contract work and receives a fixed fee (can be a %age or predetermined cost). Fee is paid only for the completed work and does not change due to seller performance. Cost plus Incentive Fee Contract (CPIF) In this contract the final cost are less or greater than the original estimated cost. In this case, both the buyers and sellers share cost from the departure based upon a cost sharing formula e.g. (20/80) Cost Plus Award Fee Contract (CPAF) The determination of FEE is based solely on the seller’s performance and is generally not subject to appeals. The majority of the fee is earned only based on the satisfaction of certain broad subjective performance criteria defined and incorporated in the contract.

10. Time & Material Contract (hybrid or Adhoc) Normally related with smaller projects and is mostly built on item / day basis. Can be left open-ended. These contracts are often used for staff augmentation, acquisition of experts, or any outside support when a precise statement of work cannot be quickly arranged.
