Supplier Relationship Management Auditing and Assurance
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is written from the assurance side. Delegates learn to test whether total cost of ownership and strategic sourcing 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 development, warehouse operations and spend analysis in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
