Learn Procurement Law for Trouble-Free Government Transactions

THE BIGGEST buyer and consumer of infrastructure, goods and services is the government. The private sector can win big by entering into public-private business transactions but it is essential that they first fully understand the procurement law and its IRR. Failure to know this can cost private individuals to be part of the statistics of government officials with criminal and administrative cases based on Commission On Audit (COA) findings of irregular transactions. Given the big money involved, many public officials as well as private entities dealing with government get into trouble due to ignorance of the procurement law.

Stay out of trouble by learning everything you must know about procurement law including the amendment to the IRR that took effect this year, the right procedures and interpretation of rules on bidding, bid qualification and disqualifications, bid award, contract implementation, protest mechanisms, remedies, decided cases on protest and disputes, contract termination, settlement, detecting irregular transactions, addressing common problem areas and many more.
