Leading Distribution Management Teams
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers category management and bid adjudication 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 supplier relationship management, e-procurement systems and supplier development in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put supplier relationship management on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act
- Make a decision about e-procurement systems without waiting for a specialist
- Review supplier development and say plainly whether it is working
- Spot where logistics management is failing before it becomes a finding
