Supplier Auditing for Managers
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers strategic sourcing and logistics 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 demand planning, spend analysis and supplier relationship management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where demand planning is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act
- Bring spend analysis into line with current good practice
- Review supplier relationship management and say plainly whether it is working
- Explain bid adjudication to someone who does not do the work
