Leading Total Cost of Ownership 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 supplier performance measurement 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, demand planning and e-procurement systems in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of warehouse operations rather than escalating it, measured against ISO 20400 on sustainable procurement
- Make a decision about demand planning without waiting for a specialist
- Bring e-procurement systems into line with current good practice
- Review bid adjudication and say plainly whether it is working
