Fundamentals of Import and Export Management
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Import and Export Management is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through inventory optimisation and spend analysis without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because supply disruption has become a standing operational risk rather than an exception, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with tender evaluation, contract negotiation and e-procurement systems in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain tender evaluation to someone who does not do the work, measured against the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act
- Bring contract negotiation into line with current good practice
- Take ownership of e-procurement systems rather than escalating it
- Make a decision about supplier relationship management without waiting for a specialist
