How procurement processes may impact the project delivery?

Success Problem

During the project you may need to provide the services or products of the 3rd party which may impact the project delivery due to the procurement processes and lead times on your side or with client.

Impact

Delivery time lines have to be accommodated or the action required around the procurement has to be involved in the project plan.

Recommendation

After having issue with delivery due to the procurement processes by client, the lesson learned is to always confirm the details around the procurement processes, legal details and lead times. Also due do not forget to check the procurement procedures on the delivery side when planning the delivery and creating the budget as there may be profit margin included unless the cost are pass-through.
