Strategic Sourcing
How to build a supplier base on evaluated capability and risk, not convenience — including how to run a sourcing event that actually produces competitive terms.
Strategic sourcing, contract discipline and cost optimisation for teams whose decisions move directly to the bottom line.
Sourcing & supplier evaluation
Procurement is rarely broken at the policy level — it's broken in the gap between policy and practice: suppliers selected on relationship rather than evaluated criteria, contracts signed without a clear exit clause, and cost savings tracked on a spreadsheet that nobody revisits after the deal closes.
This track is built for the people who own that gap. You'll work through real sourcing decisions, contract structures that protect you when a supplier underperforms, and cost-optimisation methods that hold up under a CFO's questions — not just an audit checklist.
How to build a supplier base on evaluated capability and risk, not convenience — including how to run a sourcing event that actually produces competitive terms.
Structuring contracts with the protections that matter — performance clauses, exit terms, and escalation paths — so a difficult supplier relationship doesn't become a crisis.
Methods for finding and proving real savings across a supply base, then tracking them in a way that survives scrutiny from finance.
