A supply chain is only as reliable as the least visible link inside remanufacturing and refurbishment. Warehouse performance on this aspect of procurement and supply operations is decided by layout and discipline long before technology. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a sourcing procedure for the wider procurement and supply operations agenda as they go. Buying a tool rarely fixes remanufacturing and refurbishment; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. The programme builds the judgement to know which parts of this aspect of procurement and supply operations to standardise and which to leave flexible. It treats this strand of procurement and supply operations as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. Where remanufacturing and refurbishment is measured, it improves; where it is only discussed, it drifts. It is written for people who have to make the wider procurement and supply operations agenda work with the resources they already have. Work concludes with a self-assessment of this strand of procurement and supply operations that participants can repeat annually.
