Artificial Intelligence in Supply Chain Risk
Procurement and Supply Chain|3 days|Classroom or live online
This programme examines how the practice is shifting, and what delegates should adopt, adapt or ignore. It works through category management and ethical sourcing as they stand today and where they are heading. The shift is worth understanding because category spend is one of the few remaining places to find margin without cutting headcount. Delegates leave able to work confidently with strategic sourcing, inventory optimisation and contract negotiation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where strategic sourcing is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against ISO 20400 on sustainable procurement
- Improve inventory optimisation within their own organisation
- Bring contract negotiation into line with current good practice
- Take ownership of logistics management rather than escalating it
