The Greenwich private limited is the manufacturing company which is looking forward to renovate their working environment with the new technological innovation so that the operational capability of the team members can be improved and it directly helps to increase the turnover of the organization. The purpose of this paper is to develop a contract and procurement management plan by identifying the evaluation criteria and risks associated with the new project.
The project will be completed by following the design-bid-build method. The design phase is used to develop the construction engineering drawings for renovating the working environment of the enterprise. The conceptual systematic design should be developed by the engineer for identifying the requirement of the resources required in the development of the project. In the bidding phase, the tenders from various contractors are collected. The evaluation criteria and scoring is set for selecting the right contractor for managing the supply of the resources at the construction site. In the building phase, the contract is signed with the contractor to supply the resources on the construction and start the construction of the undertaken project. The advantage of using this methodology is that it takes the active participation of the project owner to identify and signed contract with the right contractor so that the project can be completed within the specified time and cost.

It should be commenced that the procurement process will follow the ethical code of conduct in the delivery of physical and human resources to the construction site. The auditing of the evaluation report should be done periodically during the review process. The evaluation report should be signed by arranging the round table discussion and interviews of the contractor for supplying the required resources within the estimated time of the project. The moral principles followed by the contractor company helps in influencing privilege to manage contract with them. The ethical standards and principles should be developed for the organization so that the conflict and chaos can be avoided at top priority. It helps in bringing transparency in the working agenda.
The Guaranteed maximum price contract should be signed with the contractors and sub-contractor to initiate the supply of physical and human resources according to the requirement placed by the team members to complete the given activities of the project. The GMP contract helps in hiring contractor at maximum price and is efficient in cost saving procedures and controlling the project processes.
During the working of the project, the issues and challenges occurs between the human resources than contractor will take the step forward for resolving the issues and conflict among the team members. The proper communication strategy should be placed to settle down the disputes at an early stage of the project (Merrit, and Ricketts, 2012).
The escalation and setting down of the disputes should be reported to the project manager and project director.
The legal agreement should be signed between the resources if disputes are not settled down properly between the working parties because it will affect the completion of project on time.
