Advanced Inventory Management

Procurement and Supply Chain|5 days|Classroom or live online

This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into warehouse operations, supply risk assessment 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 supply disruption has become a standing operational risk rather than an exception. Delegates leave able to work confidently with category management, contract negotiation and strategic sourcing in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Spot where category management is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against the CIPS professional standard
  • Explain contract negotiation to someone who does not do the work
  • Make a decision about strategic sourcing without waiting for a specialist
  • Review e-procurement systems and say plainly whether it is working
