Individual purchases over 100.000

Your opportunity to influence a procurement is at its strongest during the initial stages of the process. Therefore, use this time to think carefully about what need is to be satisfied:

• What specific challenges are you facing?
• What do you wish to achieve? What purpose will the purchase contribute to?
• What general guidelines or conditions are in force/relevant for the pruchase? (for example strategic guidelines, costs/budget, time, quality, environmental requirements)
• How can the need be satisfied?
• Can existing solution in the market satisfy your requirements? Should a market research be conducted?
• Should the need in its entirety be covered via a purchase, or can parts be covered by internal ressources?

Describe and specify your need. Remember to obtain permission to carry out the procurement from leader with budget authority (BDM).
