Description
Compliance and internal risk management in procurement is tricky business. A lot can go wrong, landing your team—and sometimes your whole organization—in hot water.
We had the opportunity to host a panel discussion with four seasoned procurement pros during our OntarioTalk event, and they had a lot of great advice on the subject. While this discussion was intended for public procurement departments in Ontario, most of this advice applies to any and all public agencies.
In this episode, Bonfire’s Barb Lima moderates a conversation between:
Hend Salem, Manager of Strategic Sourcing - Non Clinical at The Ottawa Hospital Carol Izzio, Director of Procurement at Sheridan College Christine McParland, Director of Residence and Ancillary Services at St. Lawrence College Luca Del Grosso, Manager of Procurement at Technical Standards and Safety Authority
Tune in as panelists give their take on creating clear and accessible policies and procedures, the importance of leadership support, how to approach internal client education, creating a system of checks and balances, and introducing sustainable procurement initiatives in the mix.
