Once a supplier has been selected, through direct and competitive contracting or third party agent, the entity responsible for managing the contract establishes communication channel with the supplier (and freight forwarding and custom clearance agent if applicable) to manage all aspects related to the planning of deliveries, confirmation and monitoring of shipments and final confirmation that the contract conditions have been met.

 

Note: The parameters listed, specific to each procurement process, cannot be used to draw a score of the vaccine procurement capacity, as they represent different levels of details and granularity. E.g. Some questions might be too general/broad and might need further exploration in order to be used for a proper assessment.
