Job Task Analysis Survey

WorldCC and NCMA are collaborating to ensure the next evolution of the Contract Management Standard® (CMS) —CMS4—not only captures the complexities of contract management globally, but also represents a balanced perspective from both the buy and sell sides, spanning diverse industries and geographies. 

A key part of this process, is the Job Task Analysis Survey. Your participation in this survey will be instrumental in shaping the future of contract management. The insights you provide will help us understand how contract management processes vary across sectors, regions, and roles, guiding the development of a standard that truly reflects the global and dynamic nature of this profession. 

Together, we can create a shared understanding that raises the profile of contract management worldwide.
