Global sourcing management training

More and more companies are aiming to quickly bring their procurement function up to a modern, professionally managed level.

Successful procurement and supplier relationship management is one of the most important competitive factors for companies. In an increasingly competitive global environment, it is even a vital prerequisite for profitability.

In this training, the new procurement manager will learn practical measures for a conscious, goal-oriented development of the procurement function.

External procurement often accounts for the lion's share of a company's total turnover, so change has a big impact on the company's overall performance.

This training is designed for new procurement managers, e.g. professionals moving from production, R&D or sales to become procurement managers.

Typical job titles for participants are Sourcing Manager, Purchasing Manager, Procurement Manager, Purchasing Engineer, Buyer, Material Manager, or Supply Chain Manager.

Most of the participants work for a medium-sized manufacturing SME.

The training is also suitable for sales people who want to better understand how customers evaluate suppliers and thereby improve their bid success rate.
