About this session

A foundational aspect of all procurement activities is the management of cost, but recognising all the differing dimensions of cost is important to make the right time based decision when awarding on cost parameters. And, particularly, how cost extends over the life of the object or service purchased. Of course, “cost” today is often more related to ‘value’ and often includes a broader definition of cost – including such aspects even as sustainability

In this session, we will look at;

• Differing aspects of cost and what to consider

• How time affects total cost

• How total cost calculations may evolve for the triple bottom line
