Coaching Contractmanagers Amsterdam

The municipality of Amsterdam has implemented the IPM model for civil engineering projects.

One of the key roles in this is the role of the contract manager. The contract manager is responsible for:

  • Developing the procurement strategy

  • Strategic procurement management

  • Performing contract management

  • Achieving the project outcome

Demonstrate, participate, do it yourself...

Aratis has supported the municipality of Amsterdam in the professionalisation of the contract manager role. By establishing standard formats, procedures, and knowledge sharing. And perhaps most importantly: coaching employees individually. Knowledge is best retained when it is applied in practice. Aratis applies the principle of 'show, do together, do yourself.'

By focussing this principle on the individual, everyone gets their own learning path and works on their own development. All of this is to ensure that contract managers are well-prepared for their wide-ranging tasks.
