Course Overview

A supply chain is only as reliable as the least visible link inside drafting procurement contracts. Savings claimed on the practice within procurement and supply operations at signature are frequently lost during execution. Organisations that document this strand of procurement and supply operations properly resolve disputes about it far more quickly. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on drafting procurement contracts and revise it on evidence. Participants test their assumptions about this part of procurement and supply operations against scenarios designed to break weak ones. Most organisations already have a policy on the procurement and supply operations discipline; far fewer can show it working. This programme builds drafting procurement contracts from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. The programme works equally well for those formalising this area of procurement and supply operations for the first time and those improving an existing approach. The course ends by identifying what the participant will stop doing to make this aspect of procurement and supply operations sustainable.
