Projact Manager - Procurement Management

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 750-900 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?

Prepare a project plan that covers all project groups and knowledge areas.
