Advanced Sustainable Procurement
5 days|Delivered on request
This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into tender evaluation, warehouse operations and the judgement calls that sit outside the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act. 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 strategic sourcing, supplier development and supplier relationship management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where strategic sourcing is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act
- Bring supplier development into line with current good practice
- Take ownership of supplier relationship management rather than escalating it
- Review contract negotiation and say plainly whether it is working
