Purpose
Use this plan to decide what the programme should obtain externally and how each acquisition will move from need to an awarded agreement. It covers facilities, goods, materials and external resources, together with the sourcing, solicitation, evaluation and contractual methods appropriate to each requirement.
Application
Prepare the plan early because procurement lead times, market capacity and commercial choices can determine programme feasibility and benefits. Refine it as the programme evolves, strategy or risk responses change, and make-or-buy decisions are revisited. It sets programme-level requirements but does not replace the procurement plans needed by individual projects.
Completion discipline
Complete the document from current evidence, name its owner and approving authority, and link the plans, registers or decisions that support it. Retain approved versions and review the document whenever a material assumption, dependency, requirement or governance decision changes.
