We learn by doing. I dont want to know what it is. I want to know how to do it. I understand strategies. I want to know processes, proven methodologies. How to get started with no experience. I was researching the job market yesterday and realized there's a high demand for remote buyers, account managers and procurement specialists. They "appear" to be very lucrative, versitile, and flexible. Where to start?

I'm looking for procurement jobs. This video helps me a lot.

[@WorldofProcurement]

Glad I could help

[@martinjohntraining8765]

Great overview of the value that good procurement can bring to a business.

[@WorldofProcurement]

awesome feedback - that was all we set out to do with this one! Thank you

[@DFWTexas]

Bro! I watched at least 6 other videos prior to this one and you explained it so simple that it made sense! LOL. Thank you for the informational video! The only con was your audio I had to put the volume up substantially and even then it sounded like you were far away although the background music was more clear.

[@WorldofProcurement]

Glad it helped! We'll be updating these videos later this year (as we now have a studio space to record in :D )

[@rakeshkagawade7081]

Thank you so much for this❤helped lot

[@DawnL-dp2ib]

Your videos have been so helpful in opening me up to the world of procurement and contract management. About to start my new role as contract manager your videos were so helpful in my making this switch. I definitely need to hear about your second brain system to store knowledge.

[@WorldofProcurement]

Hey Dawn, so happy for you - let's connect on LinkedIn if we aren't already? As for the Second Brain piece - I wrote about this here: worldofprocurement.substack.com/p/personal-knowledge-management-for This one is for paid newsletter subscribers and I just put out a newsletter today that you can read with a free subscription about my reading habits which form part of my Second Brain here: worldofprocurement.substack.com/p/how-to-read-online I've just built my office/youtube studio and will be going through some in-depth set ups of the second brain process over the next few months :D

[@Franklin.neo721]

Thanks for making this video! I was just hired as a Project Administrator and am new to the procurement world. Would you be able to do a video on SOWs and deliverables and how they are managed? It would be a big help to me and I’m sure to others!

[@WorldofProcurement]

Let us see what we can do - we're planning a complete Procurement 101 Course for Free on KZbin right now and have SOWs, etc, earmarked in that.

[@3JoysVentures]

Thank you for this video. What level would you recommend I start from for a CIPS qualification? as a business degree holder.

[@biancarebolledo3345]

Thanks!

[@jameskemp410]

Great overview, thank you! A video on the RFX process would be great :)

[@WorldofProcurement]

Hey, got it, will get something together on this for sure :D

[@DG-lf4ys]

Thank you thats great content. Do you have a video about procurement cards and its advantages? Would like to understand why some companies decide to have Pcards and not just a single card like T&E. Thanks.

[@WorldofProcurement]

I don't, it's a good topic point for sure! Let me work something up.

[@MalickMan]

I have a great Blue Mountain Coffee connection. What are some initial steps I should take to profit significantly?

[@sophiamagdalena7287]

why did amazon slip through here lmfao :D thanks for your work

[@BriMor100]

Great video! I recently applied for a procurement role and it is specific to "Expediting" what does this mean?

[@riyasa.l230]

What are the types of procurement & explain

[@Kiran-ye7ix]

I'm currently doing a 24 month apprenticeship with my local council to get a Level 4 CIPS qualification. The pay is very low but have been told salaries will increase after a few years. Is this a good career for a 19 year old?

[@WorldofProcurement]

It’s going to be an amazing career and hopefully this channel can help you. You should come join my procurement community here: worldofprocurement.substack.com/

@@WorldofProcurement do you think I'm joining Procurement at a particularly good time?

[@faizangaibi781]

Hey.!!! This video helped a lot But i have a few more questions regarding procurement as im thinking about getting into procurement and planning to leave my merchant navy officer job It would be great to talk to you.!!

[@WorldofProcurement]

Appreciate and absolutely, let us know.

[@faizangaibi781]

How welcoming is procurement if you're moving in from a merchant navy as a career switch

[@MoroccoF1]

I need help bro

[@paulpullspunches]

Hi good video. In the uk can you set up a company to win government tender bids to subcontract to business which can fufil the product or service like a broker?

[@WorldofProcurement]

You can - but you'll still be 100% responsible for the work. As a former UK Govt Procurement Pro, that approach would be seen as exceptionally high risk if everything was outsourced. But, this is fairly standard for a lot of Govt suppliers in that they do some of the work and the rest is outsourced. The outsourced element is provided in the "Tender" response so the Govt will assess this as part of the tender evaluation.

[@paulpullspunches]

@@WorldofProcurement thank you so much for your response. Being transparent I've been looking for a career change and came across this sector. As I do have many contacts who can carry out the work most will be outsourced but I can I am more than happy to take on the full responsibility. To gain credibility in bids would it be recommended to have cips qualifications? Do new ltd have a chance of winning tenders?
