I completed a short stint as a Tender Manager | QA with an SME who is predominately in the Construction Industry, however the group has a diverse portfolio. I created and implemented a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for the tender’s department, added to this implementing a tender register with task assignment and deadline timeline. I have worked in the higher education sector for one of the top5 Universities in South Africa as a senior administrator and have over 10 years of experience in the tender environment from both ends of the process as a bidder and as an evaluator. I have much understanding and practical experience in all forms of RFIs, RFQs and RFPs, proposals and tenders for both goods and services. I have experience with managing a small team and ensuring that registration criterion is met. I can effectively communicate and liaise with all levels of staff. I have assisted on a Managed Print Solution Project as an Administrator; therefore, I do have knowledge and understanding of the bases of project management. I completed the Chartered Institute of Procurement & Supply (CIPS) Corporate Award programme and achieved my MCIPS designation. I have successfully achieved my Chartered Status, which required Continuous Personal Development points to remain active. This is achieved via a job role and completing online short course through CIPS.
