Strategic Public Sector Procurement
Procurement and Supply Chain|5 days|Classroom or live online
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.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring logistics management into line with current good practice, measured against the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act
- Explain demand planning to someone who does not do the work
- Improve strategic sourcing within their own organisation
- Put category management on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
