Executive Programme
Strategic Sourcing
Programme focused on building and executing sourcing strategy. We teach a systematic approach to supplier selection: from category and market analysis, through RFP and evaluation, to decision and new supplier onboarding.
Strategic sourcing requires the ability to analyse supplier markets - not just to manage relationships with individual suppliers.
