Supplier Development Masterclass
5 days|Delivered on request
This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into category management, warehouse operations and the judgement calls that sit outside the CIPS professional standard. At this level the constraint is rarely knowledge. It is judgement under pressure, which matters because supply disruption has become a standing operational risk rather than an exception. Delegates leave able to work confidently with tender evaluation, bid adjudication and e-procurement systems in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review tender evaluation and say plainly whether it is working, measured against the CIPS professional standard
- Put bid adjudication on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Take ownership of e-procurement systems rather than escalating it
- Spot where logistics management is failing before it becomes a finding
