CF Industries: Progressive Private Sector Company Knows the Value of a Solid Procurement Team

CF Industries Logo

The Challenge

At CF Industries, the procurement department facilitates and manages the bid and award process for competitive contracting. In the spring of 2013, CF Industries was working with 80% new staff, especially in the engineering area. Many of the new staff had come from the private sector with limited knowledge of Canadian competitive contracting law. Although the private sector itself, CF understood the importance of its obligations under Contract A when electing to use competitive contracting and wanted to protect the integrity of the process. CF wanted to have their procurement team, engineers, managers and end-user group attend together so they could all benefit from the training and work effectively together on upcoming competitive procurements.
