PROJECT PROCUREMENT ANSWERS
What should an Africa-bound sourcing enquiry include?
Specify the destination country and city, the project type, the proposed delivery point and the products required. Africa is not a single import or technical market. Ask the appointed local importer and project professionals to identify the applicable documentation and product requirements before supplier selection. Confirm freight, clearance and inland delivery responsibilities for the particular quotation.
| Topic | Information to collect | Who confirms it |
|---|---|---|
| Destination | Country, city, proposed port or delivery point and site access | Client and appointed logistics parties |
| Product requirements | Required specifications and documents for the selected products | Local project professionals and importer |
| Packing and consolidation | Item list, fragile goods, supplier readiness and shipment grouping | Client and the parties coordinating packing and freight |
| Quote boundaries | Which freight, insurance, clearance and inland delivery costs are included | The relevant supplier, freight provider and local importer |
