This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers category management and e-procurement systems 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 ethical sourcing, tender evaluation and demand planning in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Make a decision about ethical sourcing without waiting for a specialist, measured against the PFMA and MFMA supply chain regulations
  • Explain tender evaluation to someone who does not do the work
  • Put demand planning on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
  • Take ownership of bid adjudication rather than escalating it
