Contract Administration for Small and Medium Enterprises
3 days|Delivered on request
Contract Administration for Small and Medium Enterprises takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including contract negotiation, supplier relationship management and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because category spend is one of the few remaining places to find margin without cutting headcount, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with category management, total cost of ownership and supply risk assessment in their own organisation.
