AI SKILLS FOR FUTURE- READY PROCUREMENT PROFESSIONALS transparent, two-way dialogue. Schedule structured check-ins not just to track milestones but to ensure alignment and surface blind spots. Share feedback in real time – what’ s working, what’ s not – and create space for your provider to do the same.”
Natasha also highlights the value of maintaining relationships beyond project completion:“ Many consultants advise without staying through execution. Don’ t hesitate to re-engage them afterward. True partners won’ t nickel-and-dime you, they take pride in elevating your organisation.”
