PROCUREMENT PLAN
1. SUMMARY OF PROPOSED PROCUREMENT
1.1 BACKGROUND AND STRATEGIC AIMS
 The procurement is required to build a new building for design and environment in
university. It will help in opening a new school for students. Moreover, aim is to expand the
university courses in different area.
 A procurement plan will help in saving cost directly through triple bottom line. Also,
procurement savings include pre, post contract award activity. In this through suppliers
materials will be selected (Aldenlöv & et.al., 2017). Furthermore, the stakeholders will be
involved in adding values to project. This is because procurement support in saving cost
within project. It is done through proper planning where cost optimization occurs.
 However, goods are acquired through suppliers which benefit both supplier and contractor.
Here, direct purchasing is done through third parties.
 Procurement strategy is useful in acquiring goods and services through a systematic
process. By this the need of project is identified and goods are delivered in specified time.
 There are several principles followed in procurement as it helps in proper completion of
project.
 The expected outcomes in this project will be developing a sustainable design of school
building. Apart from it, cost incurred will be less as compared to estimated.
1.2 DESCRIPTION AND SCOPE OF THE PROJECT
The overall project will be constructed in land of 12,000 square feet. The building type will be
concrete frame consisting of three floors and including a terrace. Also, building will include
windows covered with glass. The materials used in building include concrete and iron rods.
The inclusion will include boundary walls, passage, etc. which will cover a small portion of school.
The school will be located within campus and facing south
1.3 ESTIMATED CONTRACT COMMENCEMENT DATE
The proposed contract commencement date is 25th June' 2021
1.4 PROCUREMENT METHOD
1.4.1 Sourcing and Delivery Methodology
Proposed sourcing method – it is a method in which various suppliers are evaluated so
that it is endured that materials are delivered in specified time with cost optimisation. In this project
strategic sourcing method will be used. This method is taken because it will help in gathering
information in effective way so that university can leverage their purchasing power in best way in
the market. With help of it, cost structure is developed which helps in building strong relation with
[DRAFT/FINAL] Page 4 of 23

PROCUREMENT PLAN
suppliers and purchasing products at low cost. There are several steps followed in this like
gathering data and analysing it.
Delivery methodology – It refers to method of delivery project outcomes. This method
allows contractor to manage only one project at a time. At initial stage university and contractor
works collaboratively with each other. Therefore, any change in process or budget are addressed by
project team in creative way. This is a method in which the flow of work is unified from initial to
completion stage. It also helps in saving cost and reducing risk to a great extent as contractor works
with integrated team.
1.5 CONTRACT MODEL AND TERM
The proposed contract term is 3 years.
The contract model is partnering contract GC21 model.
In this project is basically completed through collaborative contracting. In this main aim is
to create a trustworthy environment to facilitate a project successfully. Furthermore, parties
involved in this are not legally forced to enter into contract ( Fig, 2018). This model is taken
because here, a workshop is organised where parties identify common goals and discuss
procedure for handling and avoiding dispute during a contract.
1.6 FUNDING
In order to complete a project there are different types of funding available. It depends on scope
of project that what type of funding is suitable. Moreover, it is very important to select proper
funding source as it can directly impact on completion of project. Besides this, it enables
stakeholders to allocate funds accordingly. There are various sources of funding available that
is as follows :-
 Bank loan
 Venture capital
 Loan from financial institution
For this project loan from financial institution can be taken. For this Credit Union Australia
(CUA) institute is selected. The funding has been approved by John Smith (project manager) as
well as stakeholders. Through this source funding needs of project is fulfilled.
1.7 ESTIMATED CONTRACT VALUE
The estimated contract value of project will be approx $150000 approx. The additional cost
required for project will be $ 25000
The cost estimation is done on basis of previous projects that are been undertaken. In previous one
the land was of similar size that is approx. 10,000 square feet. Besides this, there were three floors
constructed including a garden area.

4. RISK ANALYSIS
There can occur certain risk in new building construction that can impact highly on completion of
project. The risk will also affect on cost or quality raw of materials used. Therefore, it is necessary
to identify risk so that it can be mitigated. There are several types of risk associated with project
that is as follows :-
Financial – This risk can arise due to poor evaluation of cost estimation in project. It will impact
the budget and resources allocated for project (Young, Nagpal & Adams, 2016).
Information – It is the most common risk that can occur in procurement plan. Due to lack of
information of about delivery method, sources of funding, etc. will affect development of plan.
Moreover, contractor should also have knowledge about
Poor market response – In this response of suppliers may be unusual. This will result in making
Inadequate assessment criteria – In this risk can arise as contractor may use different criteria for
evaluation. Thus, methods or process selected may vary or differ with one another.

PROCUREMENT PLAN
5. BUY LOCAL POLICY
The University buy local policy focuses on buying from local staff to support local
economy. This helps in growth and development of supplier. Another aspect through
which procurement support this policy is delivering long term value for money for
university. By using sustainable materials in building, project value is generated.
Besides this, it ensures that all goods and services are manufactured and delivery in
sustainable manner.
This procurement level is at initial stage. It only gives a brief description of how
suppliers are to be involved. Also, the information gathered from suppliers will be
primary one. It will include data about their products, location, etc.
5.1 PLANNING THE PROCUREMENT
5.1.1 LOCAL BUSINESS CAPACITY
Local businesses have the capacity to meet the contract size and scope
requirements, based on:
• previous, similar or current contracts – did local businesses respond;
• discussions with relevant industry associations
• number of potential local business respondents;
• generic nature of the specification/scope of works;
• flexibility for respondents to respond to all or some of the required services;
and
• a potential for local industry development.
The research which will be conducted by contractor to examine level of capability
of local business to meet procurement are as follows:
At the level of Australia capital territory contractor will research by approaching
civil and trade contractor and suppliers. Civil contractors will help in meeting
customer values, innovative thinking and adaptability. The advice from
contractors that is Delcon Pvt. Limited and Berne Fleming Civil will helps in
cementing reputation and meting procurement requirement which are based on
making optimum utilization of resources, collaboration and safety at project.
Further, suppliers who will assist in managing quality and time supply of raw
material will be Cervcrop, midway concrete and Citiwest rentals.
For managing surplus knowledge over project contractors will approach
Australian Construction industry Forum, Association of Australian consulting
architects and Australian Constructors Association. Discussion with these
individuals will assist the contractor in managing safe and competitive
construction of building as per requirement of client. The information from
discussion of association will helps in gaining knowledge over safe an, raw
material and construction standards of Australia.
5.1.2 LOCAL CON TENT
The anticipated level of local content for this contract is as follows:
· The majority of the products, materials and services and the degree the contract
outcomes are anticipated to be sourced locally;
[DRAFT/FINAL] Page 9 of 23

PROCUREMENT PLAN
· A local ACT builder is likely to source products from elsewhere, but is likely
to source labour locally;
· The contractor will seek raw material and equipment’s from the suppliers
which are listed under Australia Building and Construction Commission (ABCC)
which will ensure supply of quality raw material and equipment’s. The commission
conducts investigation compliance with ethical construction standard and
therefore it will help in meeting procurement needs.
This estimation is based on:
· the level of local content for previous, similar or current contracts; and
· The level of equipment’s will be advanced in order to manage efficiency in
labor work and minimize risk of uncertain working condition like working at height,
delay in work, use of defective machinery or equipment’s and working in
uncertain conditions.
5.1.2 EARLY TENDER ADVICE
An early tender advice notice shall be placed on Tenders UC for this proposed
procurement.
6. PROCUREMENT RESEARCH
6.1 ALTERNATIVE PROCUREMENT OPTIONS
The alternative procurement methods that could be used are as follows:
 Traditional methodology
 Management contracting method
 Public Private Partnership method
6.1.1 PROCUREMENT AND DELIVERY STRATEGIES CONSIDERED
The procurement strategies to be considered are as follows:
Single Stage tendering: This is applicable only at the time of tendering initiation and
includes the necessary details for making a budget. Thus, this gives clarity to the
employer about several prospective suppliers, tender quotations with other negotiations.
Two Stage tendering: This is a procurement type where appointment of a contractor takes
place initially to define the scope and complete outline. Later, the contractor is also
appointed to contract and construct (Mapulanga, 2015). Thus, there is dual benefits of
hiring a single contractor who is involved in all the stages and help in cost optimization
for the employer.
Open Tender: It is that open competition or bidding at competitive levels where the bids
are taken and adds value in terms of financial gains. However, it is useful only for simple
[DRAFT/FINAL] Page 10 of 23

PROCUREMENT PLAN
goods and not beneficial for complicated procurements. The entire focus in this type has
been on following the regulations and instructions in context to standards given by EA
code of ethics etc.
Leasing: This is one of the delivery strategies to be considered by the employer to gain
capital after completion of the building. Here, a contract must be established between the
leaser and the land owner for specific period and fixed amount. This is beneficial when
safeguarding the equipment and space with cash outflow.
Public/private partnerships: This is useful when the infrastructure solutions has been
achieved and support in reducing the delays. Additionally it focuses on effective timely
provision and retain the ownership assets (Turkalj & Mahacek, 2015).
In regard to the above, two stage tendering process will be beneficial and is
considered as the best method to adopt. In this project, it promotes collaborative approach
to deliver the value along with client's commercial position. One of the effective measures
is cost efficiency that is attainable through appointment of contractor on lump sum
contract. This is helpful in negotiations and highlight the requirements for design fees,
risk margins, pre-construction services. Moreover, this procurement strategy will help in
achieving the regional objectives of constructing a building with sustainable materials and
economical. The contract structure is required when hiring the contractor for all stages
and the non contract options are Here, Credit Union Australia (CUA) will be applicable
and is existent.
6.2 NUMBER OF RESPONDENTS
It is anticipated that 20 respondents will be received, based on the scale of this
project of the university. The brand name and reputation is important for any contractor to
be associated with and thus, experienced, technically sound and skilled people are
required. Herein, the majority of respondents are likely to represent medium firms from
Australia. These firms are conscious and sustainable friendly towards the construction
sector. Moreover, the aim is to build resilient and positive places for people to safeguard
the well being.
[DRAFT/FINAL] Page 11 of 23

PROCUREMENT PLAN
7. STAKEHOLDER RESEARCH
A stakeholder analysis was done in order to consult with proposal of procurement. The stakeholder
included were University trustee, government, suppliers, etc. By analyzing information it was
identified that supplier’s response was positive and they were highly interested in building new
school in university. In addition to it, University professors said that they will also contribute and
provided useful info about land. There were several policies as well which were given by local
authorities to be followed. Through this, it was easy to make changes in procurement plan. Besides
this, by gathering data of suppliers cost analysis was done. Thus, it was easy to initiate project.
[DRAFT/FINAL] Page 12 of 23

PROCUREMENT PLAN
8. SUSTAINABILITY ISSUES
This section emphasis on the issues that may impact the sustainability factor while completing the
building construction project. It also increases the risks associated with the safety of people
working and affecting the quality in managing the resources. It is known that about 40 percent of
the raw materials are used in construction projects (Patil & Laishram, 2016). In addition to this, the
biggest issues includes waste disposal and transportation issues which has not only hamper the
environment but also decrease the air quality. The building waste is huge and includes
wood,glass,asphalt,bricks etc. And this is often difficult to dispose on the land or water resources.
Here the transportation is also required to dump this waste either through using incineration or land
filling methodology. Along with this, the retro fitting also has an adverse impact on the
sustainability factor and can be mitigated by using proper layout planning and designing in the pre-
design stage.
To support sustainability, the following initiatives will be incorporated:
Using prefabricating materials of construction to complete the project, the contractor must adopt
the Building Information Management Systems to maintain the working environment in systematic
ways. Here the focus is to minimise the damages by using approximately 15 % of materials initial
stages of construction.
There is a need to build a robust waste management at the construction site to support the eco
friendly objective while doing any project. Here the focus is on recycling containers,materials and
other substances to minimise the organic waste. This would pave the path of durability and
enhances the water efficiency.
GBCA (Green Building Council of Australia) or LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design) certified project contractors must be taken or consulted before initiating and supporting the
project (Öjehag-Pettersson & Granberg, 2018) .
