Course Overview
Warehouse performance on payment terms and cash flow is decided by layout and discipline long before technology. Single sourcing on cash flow looks efficient until the day it is not. Participants finish able to explain the procurement and supply operations discipline to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. This programme builds payment terms and cash flow from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. Comparative studies of the practice within procurement and supply operations across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. It is written for people who have to make cash flow work with the resources they already have. Ambition around payment terms and cash flow outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of cash flow and supervised application. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for the wider procurement and supply operations agenda survives a hostile question.
