Customer Reviews

one of my favorite textbooks - will keep for reference!

This book was my textbook for a class in Procurement and Contract Management. For a textbook, it was quite enjoyable. It is written in a style that you can read through quite quickly, and I sometimes found myself reading ahead of the assigned chapters out of interest. I really liked how the author made this difficult subject very clear. The book is peppered with examples from real businesses. It's also easy to reference. The back of the book contains an index to help you find what you're looking for. There is also a reference to contracting terms, some common forms for contracting/procurement, and a reference to the Universal Commercial Code.

Good theoretical foundation for contract management

I used this book for MBA course in "Contract and Procurement Management". The author is very experienced in getting government contracts worth millions to billions of dollars. Many of the tools and techniques are informative. The coverage of UCC is in great details. The contract forms are very handy for contract managers. The procurement process, using e-commerce and supply chain management (SCM) was not covered in the book. I added much materials on SCM, to the course. Overall, the book is solid and I will recommend it.
