& Contracting

Procurement with ConMoto Group

We have a depth of experience in relation to all aspects of procurement across the entire procurement lifecycle.

Project delivery & compliance advice

We are experienced with providing advice on project delivery structures, including one-off and standing offer agreements, alliance contracts, early contractor involvement, managing contractor and direct management arrangements.

Our team also advises on compliance with internal procurement frameworks and relevant approvals and delegations.


Negotiating contract terms

Negotiating contract terms and conditions with potential suppliers, including advising and providing risk analysis of departures from precedent documents and supplier terms and conditions.

Managing the procurement process

We routinely assist clients to manage their procurement processes by preparing requests for tender (including the contract to be attached to the RFT documents) and providing advice on tender evaluation.

We have many ways that we can help streamline the procurement process, for example by developing and providing access to custom automated templates via a Cadence portal for your business.
