Course Overview
Most procurement disputes about strategic spend classification matrix originate in a specification written too quickly. Warehouse performance on classification matrix is decided by layout and discipline long before technology. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make this strand of procurement and supply operations hard in practice. It is designed for mixed groups, so that strategic spend classification matrix is examined from more than one functional angle. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in this area of procurement and supply operations, not around theory headings. Ambition around classification matrix outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. Across sectors, teams that rehearse strategic spend classification matrix outperform teams that only plan it. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what classification matrix has actually achieved. The course ends by identifying what the participant will stop doing to make the procurement and supply operations discipline sustainable.
