Procurement Processes for Contract Managers

  • Learning & System Guidance Curriculum
    Curriculum materials guide users on how to identify contract performance expectations and get best contract performance outcomes. Some of the most important work for improving the performance of contracts happens during the course of the contract itself. Agencies can use active contract management strategies to establish an ongoing collaboration with vendors to strategically improve performance. Learn more about this in the Preparing for Active Contract Management Guide.
  • Processing & Action Repository
    Get the Forms, Templates and Check Lists you need to get the job done. For instance, the RIFANS Change Order Form, Agency Procurement Tracker Template and RIFANS Requisition and Purchase Order Search Check Lists.
  • All Curriculums begin with Pre-Requisite PROC 101 | Rhode Island Division of Purchases (ri.gov)

Next Step

If you prepare RFPs/RFQs/RFIs, or perform the mini-bid process, please proceed to the PROC 401 - Procurement & Solicitation Roles curriculum.

If you are a Requisitioner and have not taken PROC 201 - Requisitioner, please take the 201 Curriculum. 

Because each Curriculum is designed to provide all materials that meet the Learning and Actions associated with that specific procurement role, you may see some materials cross over between Curriculums.

When you have completed PROC 301

You have gained knowledge of the Procurement Contract Management role, and discovered the helpful resource guides, tips, checklists, and forms that are available to you at any time.

Return to PROC 301 or visit the Agency Procurement Library to access these resources.

Congratulations and Thank You for completing the PROC 301 Curriculum.
