Sustainable Procurement 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 inventory optimisation and supplier performance measurement 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 total cost of ownership, contract negotiation and category management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review total cost of ownership and say plainly whether it is working, measured against the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act
- Explain contract negotiation to someone who does not do the work
- Improve category management within their own organisation
- Spot where supply risk assessment is failing before it becomes a finding
