Fundamentals of Supplier Relationship Management
Procurement and Supply Chain|2 days|Classroom or live online
Fundamentals of Supplier Relationship Management is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through contract administration and spend analysis without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because category spend is one of the few remaining places to find margin without cutting headcount, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with demand planning, supplier relationship management and supply risk assessment in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about demand planning without waiting for a specialist, measured against the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act
- Improve supplier relationship management within their own organisation
- Review supply risk assessment and say plainly whether it is working
- Take ownership of category management rather than escalating it
