About the Course
This course is about understanding supply chains, how they are managed and how to add resilience measures to them, and therefore, the business. It is about how to engage with those responsible for procurement and their teams to embed business continuity and resilience into the business supply chain. In the current climate of financial austerity, volatile markets and globalisation, supply chains are often under complex and global pressure. Suppliers may be located in areas of the world that suffer considerable threats from severe weather systems and many logistical problems.
The course covers:
- • Supply Chain tiers and risks
- • What is outsourcing
- • How and where supply chain management fits and links into the different stages of the BCM Lifecycle
This advanced course gives considerable detail on how to fully collaborate and engage with the operation and those responsible for creating contracts and service level agreements specifically for “priority suppliers” identified in the business impact analyses.
