# Procurement Management

{% hint style="danger" %}
**ARCHIVED**

This page has been archived. It's content might be outdated.
{% endhint %}

If a proposal has been approved by DReps, pushed through to successful treasury withdrawal and the vendor has selected Intersect to be the named administrator, then Intersect Operational Services team will oversee the entire procurement process. Intersect’s Procurement team will support from contract creation to contract initiation including any legal and financial requirements to consider. As the chosen Administrator, Intersect will complete all required procurement checks, including conducting the necessary KYB/KYC checks. Once this is done, the Intersect Procurement and Legal teams will work to establish a contract between the vendor and the Cardano Development Fund.

The Procurement team will collaborate closely with the vendor to ensure delivery milestones are accurately captured and effectively documented, ensuring the smooth processing of smart contract payments. The team will also collaborate with the vendor to ensure that the contract is mutually agreed upon, with both parties in agreement on all content, clauses, and financial terms, before the contract is sent for signature.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.intersectmbo.org/intersect-knowledge-base/archive/cardano-budget-archive/intersect-operational-services-overview/procurement-management.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
