Introduction to Strategic Purchasing

At the end of this training programme participants will be able to:

Understand why organisations need a strategic purchasing capability
Understand the role of purchasing in an organisation
Understand the key steps in the purchasing process
Identify the key capabilities required of a strategic purchasing function

Those who are new to working in a purchasing environment with little or no purchasing experience; those who would like to review their existing skills in developing and optimising purchasing capability in buying and purchasing management roles; and those outside of the purchasing function who are stakeholders in the purchasing and procurement process.

Prior to the course, delegates will be asked to identify areas of spend for which they have direct or indirect responsibility in order to be able to work through real case examples during the programme.
