Task:
Project procurement management is a knowledge area that involves selecting sellers (vendors), negotiating their terms, and managing the ongoing relationships with them. Sometimes those activities are conducted by the project manager; other times they are completed by a purchasing department or higher-level manager.
Write 750 to 1000 words. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas:
As a Project Manager, what procurement management activities have you performed or experienced in the past?
If the PM has not completed those activities, who in the organization has?
What procurement-related activities do you anticipate that you will be expected to complete as the project manager for IRTC?
What activities need to be identified and performed right now?
Develop a project plan that covers all project groups and knowledge areas.
Apply the nine project management knowledge areas.
