Traditional purchasing function has evolved from a narrowly defined activity into a professional supply management function, driven by people and technology. Supply management is concerned with cost containment, profitability, and relationship building. The discipline of supply management is the core component of an effective supply chain. Supply professionals must possess a comprehensive skill set, have excellent technology and negotiations skills, be analytical problem solvers, and must be able to interact with potential sources of supply from around the world.

The course introduces high-level strategy and concepts while giving practical tools necessary to solve operations and supply chain problems.  You will gain insights into how good supply chain management offers a competitive advantage.  We will look at the dangers of poor operations and supply chain management, and how it can damage an organization’s overall health and performance.  Using a strategic framework, we work through all of the key drivers of supply chain performance, including operations, facilities, inventory, transportation, information, sourcing, and pricing.
