Protecting Engineers from Procurement Failure

Speaker


Description
Engineers hold a pivotal role in development of infrastructure within councils. This means that they determine where the majority of council's annual funds are spent. This also means that local government engineers are exposed to the greatest risks in procurement as they are a council's most significant buyer.

Local Government Procurement will share some examples of where procurement decisions have gone wrong, profile key procurement risks in local government today, and share how engineers can mitigate these risks into the future.
