Course Description
Procurement’s critical role in organisational success is recognised as never before, but it can only succeed if it is strategic, proactive and meticulously planned and managed.
This programme offers a comprehensive and essential guide to the entire procurement cycle and will equip procurement managers with the vital tools and techniques to manage the procurement process for goods and services efficiently, effectively, and in line with international best practices.
It’s focused on the ‘3Ps’: Principles (including transparency and accountability), Practices (including potential weak spots such as planning, tender evaluation and contract management) and Performance (including getting best value from procurement and risk management).
