Procurement Design and Management

 

 

Boston Pacific’s unmatched experience monitoring unit contingent and competitive procurement processes gives us first-hand exposure to the full range of tasks that must be present in a successful auction or procurement. We are prepared to advise our client in all the steps of a procurement process including RFP design, contract development, definition of credit requirements, RFP promotion, management of the RFP process, detailed and independent bid evaluation, and contract negotiations.

We often are the Independent Evaluator for these procurements. In this role we provide assessments of RFP design and whether the RFP is transparent, fair, in compliance with regulations, and will lead to a positive result. In addition, we review key documents and communication protocols, monitor information dissemination, author multiple reports on the solicitation’s status, key issues, and results, and participate in informational and procedural meetings. On the technical side, our tasks include reviewing the outputs of cost models, asset valuation models and full production cost simulations, and evaluating bids for an initial and final shortlist.
