NEW PROCUREMENT:
CRITICAL DEVELOPMENTS FROM PROCESS TO PRACTICE
COURSE LEADER
Richard H. Shaban, Senior Partner, Borden Ladner Gervais LLP
For any organization, purchasing goods and services ranks at the top of the "must-
do-right" list. When done well, procurement processes will drive innovative solutions
and achieve best value. If procurement processes are done poorly, supply chains are
interrupted, the spectre of costly litigation looms, and suppliers lose confidence in
the organization's ability or willingness to purchase goods and services in an open,
fair manner. Numerous court decisions provide a rich body of evidence detailing how
good procurements can go badly, and the consequences when they do.
This presentation will showcase new and evolving procurement methods, and
highlight the good, the bad and the just plain ugly. Our panel of leading procurement
experts will help you understand the "how and why" of the shifting procurement
landscape, and help you navigate around the obstacles that can so quickly push the
purchasing process off course.
This course is aimed at anyone interested in maximizing value in, and reducing
obstacles from, supply management. We will offer practical guidance that will be of
interest to procurement professionals, government officials, in-house counsel, and
contract or project managers.
