Procurement Report

This 2000 word report should describe and analyse the positive and negative aspects of three different procurement methods for construction projects. Benefits and problems for the client/developer, the consultants, the builders, the subcontractors and the end-users should all be considered.

The report must be divided into subsections and must be provided with an executive summary of one paragraph, a contents page at the beginning as well as page numbers. Referencing should conform to the Harvard system. You are advised to consult the electronic journals available in the library for reference sources.

The report should describe the characteristics of the three contrasting procurement systems which you have selected. You should express an opinion about the kinds of projects which are suited to the different procurement methods. Remember that you have ethical obligations when recommending a course of action to a potential client. Support your opinions with high quality references.
