Many procurements fail, are unnecessarily complex, or result in complaints and litigation because the Statement of Work was deficient. Terry Davenport knows the key to success is simple: prepare a SOW that balances functionality with budgetary requirements, policy restrictions and the legal issues. This seminar will show you the step-by-step process that leads to an effective statement of work.
| “If I could choose one person to write a Statement of Work for me, it would be Terry. As Contract Administrator for Western States Contracting Alliance, he wrote Statements of Work for major procurements involving hundreds of millions of dollars. And they were solid and they worked!” Jim O'Neill, CPPO, FNIGP Director of Procurement, Ft. Collins (CO) Past President of NIGP |
By the end of the seminar, you will have learned a step-by-step process for creating an effective statement of work. This process is described and illustrated with examples from Terry’s 60-page Resource Guide.
Participants (buyers and program personnel) will gain an understanding of the components of the SOW for various types of solicitations as well as useful guidance and writing tips for each. The 60-page Resource Guide is a handy reference tool. This course will take the mystery and misery out of the statement of work development process. It has been designed for use by both buyers and program/user personnel.
This seminar provides critical ‘how to’ information for all the stakeholders involved in developing or reviewing a statement of work.
This seminar will help all of the stakeholders developing a solicitation document (both invitations to bid and RFPs) do it right!Members of the evaluation team, sponsors, and contributing staffwill learn the critical elements of an effective statement of work.
