Advanced Public Sector Procurement
5 days|Delivered on request
This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into inventory optimisation, contract negotiation and the judgement calls that sit outside the PFMA and MFMA supply chain regulations. 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 supply risk assessment, contract administration and category management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review supply risk assessment and say plainly whether it is working, measured against the PFMA and MFMA supply chain regulations
- Put contract administration on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Make a decision about category management without waiting for a specialist
- Improve demand planning within their own organisation
