Vendor Due Diligence and Prequalification Contracts Course

Training Outlines

Introduction

Vendor selection based mainly on price and self-declared capability exposes organizations to delivery failure, compliance breaches and supply disruption. Effective prequalification must verify the legal, financial, technical, operational and ethical capacity required for the specific contract risk.

This course develops a proportionate due-diligence and prequalification process from requirement definition through approval and ongoing monitoring. Participants design questionnaires, validate evidence, conduct risk scoring and escalate red flags across ownership, finance, HSE, quality, cybersecurity, sanctions and sustainability. The programme then converts findings into conditions precedent, securities, warranties, audit rights and improvement plans so contracting decisions remain defensible throughout the supplier lifecycle.
