Analysis Overview and Contract Selection In Module Two, you will submit a document that identifies the case study you selected for analysis from the provided options and begins the first parts of your analysis. Your document should provide an overview meeting all critical elements in Section I of the final project, discussing why and how a procurement management plan would be useful in the procurement scenario selected. Then, considering all critical elements in Section II of the final project, discuss the contract types that could be used to execute the scenario. Select an appropriate contract type for your case study and justify your selection of the chosen contract type. This milestone will be graded with the Milestone One Rubric. Milestone Two: Procurement Regulations & Source Selection In Module Three, you will submit a document with more of your analysis for the case study that you selected.

Then discuss the impact of government regulations on procurement, the regulatory differences for procurements between the United States and another country, and potential regulatory effects for your selected procurement scenario. Second, consider the critical elements in Section IV of the final project, analyze and choose a set of parameters that you feel are useful for evaluating vendor proposals, develop a vendor evaluation tool, and assess its usefulness for proposal evaluation and selection in your scenario. This milestone will be graded with the Milestone Two Rubric.
