Post Completion Audit
Evaluation of Existing Concrete Structures
A procurement audit is a structured review of the procurement process conducted through Administrative Procurement. Its primary objective is to evaluate successes and identify areas for improvement, ensuring that lessons learned contribute to the enhancement of future procurement contracts within the organization.
Inspection & Audits in Procurement
Both buyers and sellers are required to conduct inspections and audits as specified in the procurement contract. These evaluations may occur during the project lifecycle but are finalized at contract closure. If authorized, audit and inspection teams may include buyer representatives and procurement personnel, ensuring transparency and compliance.
Procurement Closure Process
The procurement closure phase involves the verification and acceptance of all work deliverables, ensuring that contractual obligations have been met. This step is critical in finalizing procurement relationships, ensuring that all outstanding issues, claims, and disputes are resolved equitably through negotiation.
Dispute Resolution in Procurement
When disputes arise, direct negotiation is the preferred method for resolution. If settlement cannot be achieved, alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods such as mediation or arbitration may be explored. Litigation remains the least desirable option, pursued only when all other avenues fail.
