Supplier Auditing: Tools and Techniques
3 days|Delivered on request
This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through demand planning and contract negotiation on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: supply disruption has become a standing operational risk rather than an exception, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with supply risk assessment, tender evaluation and supplier relationship management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where supply risk assessment is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against ISO 20400 on sustainable procurement
- Take ownership of tender evaluation rather than escalating it
- Explain supplier relationship management to someone who does not do the work
- Make a decision about supplier performance measurement without waiting for a specialist
