Tribal organizations enter into hundreds of contracts with consultants and professional service organizations. Professional services are normally procured using a competitive request for proposal which incorporates negotiation of contract terms and conditions. This methodology requires that the Tribal organization obtain competitive proposals, evaluate these proposals in light of established criteria, and conduct cost and price analysis of contractor's submissions. These procedures require establishing evaluation criteria, conducting technical evaluations, performing cost and price analysis, and conducting negotiations. This seminar will examine in depth the procurement process to be followed for the request for proposals and the negotiations that follow. This seminar is for program staff and purchasing personnel.

 | Development of specification/scope of work |
