About the programme

Course Overview

Single sourcing on packaging recycling programmes looks efficient until the day it is not. A supply chain is only as reliable as the least visible link inside the practice within procurement and supply operations. It is designed for mixed groups, so that the wider procurement and supply operations agenda is examined from more than one functional angle. Participants finish able to explain packaging recycling programmes to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. The most reliable predictor of sound the procurement and supply operations capability is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of the wider procurement and supply operations agenda is examined, not just described. Participants leave with a method for packaging recycling programmes, not a set of opinions about it. Plans for the practice within procurement and supply operations often fail at the handover point between functions. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on this aspect of procurement and supply operations ready to put in front of a decision maker.
