Why Tendering Skills Matter for UAE Procurement Teams
Tenders that withstand close examination are essential for major projects in Abu Dhabi and Dubai. A poor tender evaluation process makes a project vulnerable to complaints, delays, or even legal action from the losing bidder. This is the crux of the reason for the existence of this training program.
This program provides procurement and audit experts a systematic method to conduct tenders from advertising stage until tender award.
Why MontRoyal Elevate Stands Out for This Course
MontRoyal Elevate uses tender examples which come from bid evaluation experience in the real world, and not just any checklist. Each module takes the trainees through a situation which a tender committee member will really face.
The trainer will show participants how to deal with difficult situations like a supplier disputing an evaluation result and a late bid among others. The participants will gain the confidence to stand behind their bid evaluations.
Online live training allows professionals from Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and the other emirates to attend while they maintain their busy schedules.
