Managing Spend Analysis
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers total cost of ownership and contract administration from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because procurement decisions are now audited for process as closely as for price, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with demand planning, category management and supplier relationship management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain demand planning to someone who does not do the work, measured against ISO 20400 on sustainable procurement
- Take ownership of category management rather than escalating it
- Improve supplier relationship management within their own organisation
- Spot where supply risk assessment is failing before it becomes a finding
