Fundamentals of Tender and Bid Management

Procurement and Supply Chain|2 days|Classroom or live online

Fundamentals of Tender and Bid Management is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through supplier relationship management and ethical sourcing without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because procurement decisions are now audited for process as closely as for price, 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 performance measurement, logistics management and inventory optimisation in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Explain supplier performance measurement to someone who does not do the work, measured against the PFMA and MFMA supply chain regulations
  • Spot where logistics management is failing before it becomes a finding
  • Take ownership of inventory optimisation rather than escalating it
  • Put total cost of ownership on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
