As procurement continues to evolve toward a strategic enterprise function, procurement teams are routinely evaluated on their strategic contribution to the overall business.
Organisations are increasingly turning to category management as an effective lever to drive greater strategic value and growth for the business. A structured category management approach can not only help you generate higher savings, but also improve supplier performance, mitigate supply risks, and drive innovation and continuous improvement. This course now delivers genuine category management methodology — spend segmentation, portfolio analysis, and category strategy development — alongside the broader strategic procurement capability, metrics, and benchmarking content that builds the case for procurement as a strategic function.
This Strategic Sourcing and Category Management is available in two formats, so you can choose the depth that fits your time and needs:
An introductory overview touching on broader procurement capability, treating category management primarily as a high-level reference session.
Expanded specifically to include genuine category management content — spend segmentation, the Kraljic Matrix, and full category strategy development.
This course is ideal for professionals involved in procurement, sourcing, and supply chain functions who want to enhance their strategic contribution to the organisation. It is particularly beneficial for:
