课程: Cost Reduction for Procurement: Using Supply-side Tools
What's in this course?
- Your CFO has given you a huge cost reduction target to drive business profitability. You've already exploited all of the internal cost reduction opportunities. You think that there are better deals available from the marketplace, but how do you get them? And where can you look next to deliver those all important savings? Finally, what are the tools that you can use, and which ones are the best to use in your context? Hi, my name is Martin, and I'm a management trainer and procurement specialist. I spent 25 years working in senior procurement and supply chain roles with global organizations, and I've been responsible for managing procurement teams and buying goods and services directly from suppliers all over the world worth tens of millions of pounds. I've delivered millions in savings, and I've lived and breathed what I'm about to teach you on this course. In this course, I've selected a menu of the best eight supply-side levers that I view successfully throughout my career to give you the maximum opportunity for making savings in your business. You'll learn how the effect of competition or even the illusion of competition can bring huge savings. How and when to use negotiation. Consider the benefits of buying from fewer suppliers. How to lock in year-on-year savings using contracts and lots more? You'll have the knowledge to deploy these tools straight away in practice, and know in which context they're best used. You may use some of them, you might even use all of them, but this course will equip you with a full toolkit of practical techniques to help you save thousands or even millions for your business. So I hope that you're inspired at this prospect, I'm certainly excited to share these tools and techniques with you. So let's jump in to finding out how you can make savings by using supply-side levers.
