Total Cost of Ownership Masterclass

Procurement and Supply Chain|5 days|Classroom or live online

This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into bid adjudication, supplier performance measurement and the judgement calls that sit outside the PFMA and MFMA supply chain regulations. 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 category management, supplier development and inventory optimisation in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Put category management on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against the PFMA and MFMA supply chain regulations
  • Bring supplier development into line with current good practice
  • Take ownership of inventory optimisation rather than escalating it
  • Make a decision about supply risk assessment without waiting for a specialist
