SPC FIRM PREPARE STANDARD TENDER DOCUMENTS FOR GOODS AND WORKS:

Most of Standard Tender Documents (STD) have been prepared by SPC FIRM for use by the Bank’s and other clients for the procurement of goods, works and services on Bank-financed projects. Use of these STDs is mandatory for open tendering and competitive selection procedures and may also be adapted for other procedures under the Bank’s Procurement Policy and Rules. Clients should use the STD and form of contract appropriate to the objectives and circumstances of the project. Some STD’s have been harmonised among the Multilateral Development Banks (MDB). The Bank is not a party to the contract and does not accept legal responsibility for the adequacy of the contract forms contained in these documents. Clients are therefore advised to ensure that the contract conditions are suitable and complete in respect of any particular contract.

FIND A ROLE IN PROCUREMENT:

Compared to professions such as finance and sales, procurement has more newly defined roles due to its fledgling state as an industry. Many professionals who started out in procurement when it was tactical and purchasing-focused and haven’t subsequently progressed are now finding it hard to secure work as the industry has moved on to a strategic model that is more integrated within organisations.

There has also been a shift for procurement to become more of a facilitator or sales role. Essentially, procurement is a value-add service – it’s not a necessity – and so as a procurement professional, you need to be able to communicate what your value-add is in order for the business to buy into you.

As a result, it’s important if you’re a candidate to develop engagement skills, by attending business presenting courses, for example. There is huge demand in the market for good communicators who can engage with stakeholders - both internally and externally. Whether you’re new to the industry or experienced and needing to update your skills, a number of organisations provides training and recognised qualifications that are looked on favourably by employers.

If you are a candidate seriously interested in starting a career in procurement, it’s important to know that not every company fully invests in procurement, and not every company fully understands strategic procurement, so it pays to ask your potential employer the following three questions:
1. What model do you use to manage your procurement?
2. What is the sponsorship for procurement in the business?
3. What is the procurement team’s influenceable spend?

While it depends on the individual organisation, the category management model is the most common structure for managing procurement, as this means the team is a lot more integrated in the organisation. This could help determine whether your role will be more sourcing, risk or vendor specific. There also needs to be sponsorship so that procurement is a core part of the business, and there needs to be a significant amount of the total spend that the procurement team can actually influence.

If you are at the more senior level, you might be experiencing difficulty in finding a new role. There is currently a bottleneck at the senior end and candidates are finding that they have to go overseas to find their next role. If this is not an option you may need to be more flexible about the level of spend you manage or the remuneration you receive in order to make a change.

22 BENEFIT OF ePROCUREMENT.

eProcurement delivers a wide range of benefits to buyers, not least the reduction in cost. For those not yet convinced, provider NexTenders compiled a list of compelling reasons to get on board.

1. Automation of the procurement process
2. Higher productivity with re-usable tenders and templates
3. Buying methods across the entire team, department and/or organisation can be standardised
4. Spending across the whole organisation is leveraged for better pricing
5. There is a mechanism to protect against unauthorised spending
6. Higher efficiency – the cost per transaction is reduced
7. Information and data about procurement activity can be kept, analysed and used as an audit trail
8. Information about procurement activity can be used to prove and manage compliance with organisational policies and procedures
9. Negotiation with vendors can be automated and optimised
10. Suppliers can be automatically kept updated of deadlines, progress and any new information
11. Agreed procurement workflows can be defined and enforced
12. Amount of paper created by the procurement process can be dramatically reduced
13. The procurement cycle time is reduced (typically by 66%)
14. Teams can work on the same tender at the same time, completing the elements that are relevant to them without waiting for other members of team to complete their sections in a document
15. Review and evaluation can be distributed to multiple parties
16. The use of templates, previous tenders and approved workflow means that new users can be up and running more quickly
17. Errors and misunderstandings in supplier responses can be minimised by structuring the input of their response, increasing efficiency, delays and reworking
18. Particular types of responses can be checked against databases in real time for expedited verification
19. For commodity products, requirements can be clarified by the use of product catalogues and other data sources
20. Increases the size of your supplier pool and standardises the information held about each one so better comparisons can be made of their credentials and services
21. Improves change management with requirements being documented in the system, helping to form the basis of change control
22. Empowers non-specialists to run and manage procurements

EQUIPMENT HIRE
Equipment hire, also called plant hire in some countries, is a service industry providing machinery, equipment and tools of all kinds and sizes (from earthmoving to powered access, power generation to hand-held tools etc.) for a limited period of time to final users, mainly to construction contractors but also to the industry and to individual consumers.
The equipment rental industry is relatively new. The American Rental Association was founded as early as 1955[citation needed], and first waves of consolidation took place as early as in the 70’s in America, leading to the creation of companies with nation-wide operations.
Europe is catching up since the 80’s.[citation needed] The industry has moved from mostly family-owned small businesses to the creation of a number of international groups, some of which have an annual turnover close to €1billion.[citation needed] In 2007, 5 out of 10 of the largest equipment rental companies in the world were European.[citation needed] The large majority of companies in the industry however still have fewer than 5 employees and concentration in the industry is expected to set for a pause in 2008-2009 as a consequence of the international credit crunch.
The situation of the equipment rental industry still varies largely from one country to another in Europe. The industry is indeed more mature in some markets than others. Equipment sales pe*******on is for example lowest in Italy and Germany (around 10-11%) and highest in the UK and Northern Europe (up to 62%). Its growth potential is still important in Southern, Central and Eastern Europe, where some countries saw a double-digit growth rate for rental in recent booming years.

The main reasons for the industry’s overall fast development are:

• Capital Release: In times where they have to demonstrate high levels of profit compared to invested capital, contractors are increasingly eager to rent equipment, as it allows them to minimize the size of their equipment fleet. Less immobilized capital, allows for improved cost control, lower maintenance costs as well as for a reduction in transportation fleets. Renting equipment with operators even allows for optimizing staff costs.

• Range of recent equipment available: Some rental companies have fleet inventories reaching up to the hundreds of thousands of pieces of equipment while others are very specialized in only a very specific product range. They can thus supply the most comprehensive range of state-of-the-art equipment – with or without qualified operators - as and when contractors / customers need it. Average fleet age in Europe is only 3.8 years.

• Maintenance, compliance with standards and regulations: Rental companies bear the responsibility for ensuring the equipment they rent out complies with all applicable regulations. Safety checks are performed before each delivery. For See more at: http://www.spc.co.tz
