Supplier Development Auditing and Assurance
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is written from the assurance side. Delegates learn to test whether logistics management and inventory optimisation are working as claimed, and how to evidence the conclusion. Assurance work is under scrutiny because procurement decisions are now audited for process as closely as for price. Delegates leave able to work confidently with supplier relationship management, supplier development and ethical sourcing in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about supplier relationship management without waiting for a specialist, measured against the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act
- Explain supplier development to someone who does not do the work
- Put ethical sourcing on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Spot where contract administration is failing before it becomes a finding
