Managing Supplier Auditing
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers logistics management and supplier relationship management 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 strategic sourcing, tender evaluation and supply risk assessment in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain strategic sourcing to someone who does not do the work, measured against ISO 20400 on sustainable procurement
- Bring tender evaluation into line with current good practice
- Put supply risk assessment on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Take ownership of total cost of ownership rather than escalating it
