Course Overview

The role of Procurement is changing significantly. Purchasing departments are moving at last from REACTIVE to PROACTIVE, responding to leadership demands that they add value to the organization, rather their typical role as cost centers. How can your organization maximize the advantages of Strategic Procurement Management? Interfacing departments also in the same quandary, because they lack the understanding of how they need to interact to both improve their departmental performance as well as improve the enterprises performance.

Ask yourself these questions:

»»Why do we experience the same issue repeatedly?

»»Why can’t the supplier improve delivery/lead time – all the time rather with just a financial incentive?

»» How come Finance violates terms & conditions of payment with suppliers?

»»Why are we experiencing quality issues from our suppliers? These and many more issues plague our best efforts – why? Apparently you haven’t found the answers/ solutions to apply. This program will provide the insight, understanding, skills and desire to change, improve and achieve measurable results.
