Leading Public Sector Procurement Teams

This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers supply risk assessment and spend analysis 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 warehouse operations, strategic sourcing and ethical sourcing in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about warehouse operations without waiting for a specialist, measured against the CIPS professional standard
- Take ownership of strategic sourcing rather than escalating it
- Review ethical sourcing and say plainly whether it is working
- Put contract administration on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
