What Is Procurement?
• Procurement is the act of obtaining goods or services,

typically for business purposes. ... Procurement generally refers
to the final act of purchasing but it can also include the
procurement process overall which can be critically important
for companies leading up to their final purchasing decision.
• Procurement is the act of obtaining goods or services, typically for
business purposes. Procurement is most commonly associated with
businesses because companies need to solicit services or purchase
goods, usually on a relatively large scale.
• A procurement contract is a written agreement between a buyer and
a seller in which the buyer agrees to purchase goods or/and services
from the seller in exchange for payment transactions. A procurement
contract states each party’s obligations and usually includes detailed
price lists, payment information, conditions of delivery and other legal
terms and conditions. There are many types of procurement
contract, including contracts with firm-fixed prices, time and
materials contracts (T&M contracts), cost-reimbursable contracts,
construction procurement contracts, etc.

within specific divisions, or both.
• General Requirements are used as the clearinghouse for items that do not
apply directly to construction, the cost of which are customarily spread out
over the entire project. These costs are also referred to as project overhead. For
estimating purposes, either term is acceptable. The important thing is to
