Strategic Public Sector Procurement
5 days|Delivered on request
Strategic Public Sector Procurement looks at this work from the level at which it is resourced and defended. The focus is on total cost of ownership, inventory optimisation and how both connect to what the organisation is actually trying to achieve. This matters at the strategic level because procurement decisions are now audited for process as closely as for price. Delegates leave able to work confidently with logistics management, demand planning and strategic sourcing in their own organisation.
