Procurement as A Significant Driver of Growth & Profitability!

Procurement and business profitability go hand in hand. It’s a massive component of any company’s costs. In fact, estimates from PwC peg a supply chain representing between 30% and 70% of an organization’s total spend.

In making decisions about sourcing, organisations will need to balance cost, environmental, societal, economic and ethical concerns to create sustainable enterprises and outcomes. A flexible and robust procurement strategy will help your organization manage budgets, boost profitability, streamline processes and compress lead-times.

This course will equip you with the knowledge to assess a variety of sourcing strategies and processes across the public and private sectors so as to achieve excellence by aligning the procurement with the company’s objectives to create value.
