Referring to Assignment No$.1,$ your team has completed the first draft for the tendering sect of the Practice Manual. A few days later, the director sent an email to your team with his comments to the first draft as below: $-$

Well done teaml

I think the first draft is good enough for our company Practice Manual. However. as the Professional Quantity Surveyor and the expert in procurement strategy, I think we should therefore take the inltiative to lead the discussion on the most appropriate procurement strategy for a project. Thus, I would like to add a section named "Procurement Strategy" in the Manual as guidance notes for our company.

On the other hand, in order to strengthen our staff estimating techniques, I would like to include an estimation example in the manual for their reference.

Any queries regarding the above, please approach me for further discussion.

Thanks allI
