Procurement awareness workshops
Effective procurement is a cross-functional activity. Everybody
who influences or makes procurement decisions should have
an awareness of how to apply good
procurement practices. This includes all those involved in the process of
selecting, evaluating and managing suppliers.
We deliver this
workshop as one day or two-day event depending on each client’s
needs. Many clients find it an extremely valuable aid to help non-procurement
professionals achieve better value-for-money.
Contract performance / supplier
relationship management workshops
Whilst
a good contract is a valuable asset, on its own it does not
necessarily achieve good supplier performance. Strong and
productive supplier relationships are critical to achieving
value for all involved.
For the Meat Hygiene Service, part of the Food
Standards Agency, we designed and delivered a two-day Contract
Management
workshop. Our aim was to increase
the ability of Area Managers to manage a range of service providers supplying
over £20 million of veterinary services. This is a critical activity
with the safety of the public a key requirement.
Commissioning lifecycle workshops
Those heavily
involved in procuring goods and services must continuously develop
and refresh their skills.
