Procurement and Supply Chain|3 days|Classroom or live online
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers warehouse operations and supplier development from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because supply disruption has become a standing operational risk rather than an exception, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with contract administration, e-procurement systems and inventory optimisation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where contract administration is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act
- Explain e-procurement systems to someone who does not do the work
- Bring inventory optimisation into line with current good practice
- Take ownership of tender evaluation rather than escalating it
