Tender and Bid Management 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 spend analysis and logistics management 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 warehouse operations, total cost of ownership and contract negotiation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of warehouse operations rather than escalating it, measured against ISO 20400 on sustainable procurement
- Put total cost of ownership on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Explain contract negotiation to someone who does not do the work
- Bring demand planning into line with current good practice
