Course description
Procurement Essentials workshop
Starting out in procurement or refreshing your procurement skills after a break, means getting to grips with the "Essentials" of the topic. This training workshop is ideal for that purpose. The workshop examines how corporate procurement takes place – usually on a competitive footing, but sometimes by placing direct orders with a supplier. The workshop will unpick the advantages and disadvantages of competitive procurement, and looks at who does what and when they do it. It will also walk through the key steps in the procurement process and examine examples of procurement documents, such as the Statement of Requirement (also known as the Scope of Work).
