Negotiate payment terms on total cost of ownership analysis that improve cash without damaging supply.
Total Cost of Ownership Analysis in Purchasing Decisions
Turn total cost of ownership analysis from a stated policy into a practice your organisation can evidence.
Course Overview
Savings claimed on total cost of ownership analysis at signature are frequently lost during execution. A supply chain is only as reliable as the least visible link inside ownership analysis. Improvement in this area of procurement and supply operations stalls when it depends on one capable individual rather than a defined method. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in total cost of ownership analysis rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about the practice within procurement and supply operations. Mature organisations treat ownership analysis as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. It suits anyone whose decisions touch total cost of ownership analysis, in large organisations and small ones alike. This programme builds ownership analysis from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. It closes by agreeing the smallest change to the procurement and supply operations capability that would make a visible difference.
