Day-to-day operating brief

What Procurement Manager work looks like in practice

A Procurement Manager leads sourcing and supplier management for technology, facilities, professional advisers and business services. The role controls tender information, spend data and supplier relationships while balancing value, resilience, data, service and conflicts. Terms should define categories, team, tender and negotiation authority, signature and spend limits, due diligence, gifts, supplier access, performance, savings measures and escalation. Tender records should demonstrate consistent requirements, bidder communications, scoring changes and conflict declarations. A strong negotiation result does not replace supplier security, resilience or financial checks where those are material. Contract award and purchase authority must remain separate from operational enthusiasm for a preferred vendor. Renewal planning should start early enough to test performance and alternatives, with exit data, asset return and transition obligations visible before leverage is lost. Evaluation criteria and weightings should be fixed before scoring unless a governed change is documented for every bidder. Negotiation notes must distinguish requested, offered and finally agreed positions so drafting does not import a concession that was never accepted.

  • Develop category and sourcing plans.
  • Run tenders and evaluations.
  • Conduct supplier due diligence.
  • Negotiate within authority.
