Free Procurement Specialist
Service Agreement
One bad vendor choice turns your budget into a bonfire and leaves your crew standing around on your dime. If those specs are wrong, you're the one eating the restocking fees while the lawyers start circling.
Pro Contractor Tip
Include a rock-solid 'Indemnification' clause so you aren't the fall guy when a supplier sends faulty gear that shuts down the entire site.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Procurement Specialist, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
The client keeps asking for extra quotes after I've already sourced the best deal. How do I stop the wheel-spinning?
That's scope creep bleeding you dry; use your contract to define exactly how many rounds of sourcing are included before the hourly 'Additional Services' rate kicks in.
What happens if a supplier misses a delivery and the client tries to dock my pay for the downtime?
You're a specialist, not a magician; your agreement needs to state clearly that you aren't liable for third-party shipping delays or vendor defaults once the order is placed.
The client used my vetted vendor list but then tried to bypass me to avoid paying my commission.
If you didn't have a 'Non-Circumvention' clause in your signed contract, you just gave away your trade secrets for free; use that paper to protect your leads so you get paid regardless of who signs the check.
