Procurement and purchasing activities refer to the aspects of project management regarding acquiring goods and services from outside companies to provide a project team with all necessary inventories to produce the product of a project. Procurement process management refers not only to internal units of an organization involved in project management activities but also to external suppliers and vendors.
The project initiation is the first project stage which usually entails generation of concept behind a new project (project conceptualization). The primary purpose of the project initiation stage is to establish the scope of project, discover its boundaries and specify what the project should accomplish.
Stating the scope of a project is probably the most important step of the planning process within the project life cycle. If a project manager doesn’t know for sure what deliverables are being produced, what technical requirements are, and what the boundaries are, he/she has no chance for success, even having excellent management skills. If the task to make scope statement wasn’t done, managing the scope is almost impossible.
