Fundamentals of Sustainable Procurement
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Sustainable Procurement is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through total cost of ownership and strategic sourcing 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 supplier development, contract negotiation and logistics management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Improve supplier development within their own organisation, measured against the PFMA and MFMA supply chain regulations
- Make a decision about contract negotiation without waiting for a specialist
- Review logistics management and say plainly whether it is working
- Explain spend analysis to someone who does not do the work
