Why Strategic Procurement Is Key to Successful Project Execution in Nigeria

Nigeria’s $1.5 trillion infrastructure gap demands precision procurement. Poor sourcing decisions account for 62% of project delays here. This playbook reveals how systematic procurement drives on-time, on-budget execution.

The Procurement Blueprint
Phase 1: Market Intelligence
Map suppliers by:
- Capacity (can they scale for your project?)
- Compliance (SON, NAFDAC, DPR certifications)
- Financial health (avoid fly-by-night vendors)

Phase 2: Contract Safeguards
Align procurement with:
- Customs lead times (avg. 5 days for machinery imports)
- Warehouse buffers (30% extra storage for delays)

Good Approach to Procurement
Reliable procurement services across multiple industries, focus on:

  • Timely sourcing of equipment, materials, and tools
  • Vendor selection and vetting
  • Cost analysis and negotiation
  • Compliance with public and private contract standards

Key Areas
Align procurement with:
1. Project-Based Procurement: Supporting construction, engineering, and maintenance projects with needed supplies.
2. Public Sector Contracts: Navigating regulatory frameworks and ensuring timely supply for government contracts.
3. Turnkey Sourcing Solutions: Managing the entire supply cycle—from order placement to delivery. 4. Inventory and Logistics Management: Ensuring stock availability without overburdening client resources.

Why Strategic Procurement Matters

  • Cost Savings: Through bulk purchasing and efficient sourcing.
  • Risk Reduction: By working only with vetted and compliant suppliers.
  • Timeline Management: Faster procurement equals fewer project delays.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Ensuring all processes align with Nigerian procurement laws.
