Contract Management
Get more from your supply chain, and improve vendor delivery and performance. We can assist you through all or part of the contract life cycle, to cut through what’s not necessary and concentrate on what you really want your contractors and vendors to do. We’ll help you negotiate collaborative outcomes and ensure a consistent and efficient rebase of your contracts.

Procurement Maturity Assessments
Our tried and tested procurement diagnostics tool will help you identify your strengths and weaknesses. Understand your current procurement maturity and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your procurement functions for significant savings and added value. Our Procurement Maturity Assessment provides you with tailored recommendations and an action plan to improve your procurement maturity and competences, as well as a benchmark score against similar institutions.

Procurement Strategy & Business Case
Aim for excellence. It’s not about being better, it’s about being best-in-class. We can help you develop an organisation-wide procurement strategy or a dedicated project strategy – aligned to your business objectives – that’s engineered for success. Procurement should be thought through at the very earliest stage of the project life cycle to plan for and drive efficient delivery solutions.

Tender Management
Go beyond the typical engagement. MB ASSOCIATES has designed thousands of EOIs/RFPs. We secure the highest quality services at the best prices and most advantageous terms and conditions. We not only help you identify and negotiate with suppliers, we remain involved to ensure ongoing compliance with terms and conditions.
