The right procurement approach can create value, manage risk, encourage collaboration, improve project outcomes and set teams up for success from the very beginning. But with increasingly complex projects, competing priorities and growing pressure to deliver better outcomes, choosing the right approach isn’t always straightforward.
Join Peter Ollivier, Senior Principal - Advisory at Egis, as he explores how procurement approaches can be used to create value, manage risk and deliver better outcomes for projects, organisations and communities. Drawing on extensive experience across the infrastructure and built environment sectors, Peter will share practical lessons and insights from real projects.
The session will explore some of the key considerations when planning and implementing procurement strategies, from understanding what you’re trying to achieve, through to selecting an approach that supports your project’s objectives, manages risk and creates genuine value.
Attendees will leave with ideas that can be applied in their own projects and organisations, whether they are seeking to improve delivery outcomes, create greater value or embed broader sustainability objectives that extend beyond the asset itself.
Whether you work in procurement, project management, design, construction, commercial management or leadership, this session will provide valuable insights into how better procurement decisions can contribute to better project outcomes.
Come along, challenge your thinking, share your experiences and leave with practical takeaways you can put into action.
Join in-person from 5pm, the presentation will run 5.15 - 6.15pm followed by networking.
