4.0 Vendor Relationship

4.1 Principles for Dealing with Vendors It is Bursa Malaysia’s interest to select the best vendor approach but at the same time to reduce any risk to the vendor as well. In order to be fair to both sides, we suggest following the principle that each party needs to make concessions against what is ideally preferred in the following areas: 4.1.1 Both parties to acknowledge that projects are dynamic and subject to

change. 4.1.2 Bursa Malaysia provides a leader (i.e. project manager) responsible for

making decisions and trade-offs. 4.1.3 The vendors help manage the project but follows direction from the

project owner. 4.1.4 Bursa Malaysia agrees that the vendors are entitled to make a profit. 4.1.5 An appropriate number of highly experienced and capable people are

assigned to the project team. 4.1.6 Bursa Malaysia expects the people assigned by the vendor to be

capable and to work in its interest. 4.1.7 Vendors are not solely responsible for the ultimate cost of the project. 4.1.8 The engagement forms the foundation for a long-term relationship.

4.2 Specifics of the Proposal – Vendors’ Staff

Vendor’s staff must be familiar with specific technologies and development life cycle. Therefore, the proposal should contain the details of individual proposed for the assignment. 4.2.1 Name of staff and level of experience. 4.2.2 State the current responsibilities of individuals assigned or proposed

for this assignment

assignments `
