Leading Strategic Sourcing Teams
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 contract negotiation and contract administration from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because category spend is one of the few remaining places to find margin without cutting headcount, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with supply risk assessment, demand planning and total cost of ownership in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of supply risk assessment rather than escalating it, measured against the CIPS professional standard
- Review demand planning and say plainly whether it is working
- Spot where total cost of ownership is failing before it becomes a finding
- Improve spend analysis within their own organisation
