Advanced Import and Export Management
5 days|Delivered on request
This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into contract negotiation, contract administration and the judgement calls that sit outside the CIPS professional standard. At this level the constraint is rarely knowledge. It is judgement under pressure, which matters because procurement decisions are now audited for process as closely as for price. Delegates leave able to work confidently with supplier development, warehouse operations and strategic sourcing in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about supplier development without waiting for a specialist, measured against the CIPS professional standard
- Spot where warehouse operations is failing before it becomes a finding
- Bring strategic sourcing into line with current good practice
- Take ownership of bid adjudication rather than escalating it
