This Managing the Procurement Process training course has been designed for medium to large local or multinational organizations that aspire to be aligned with the most updated and fit-for-purpose best practice in managing the procurement process. This training course will equip the less experienced participants with the practical skills from planning, suppliers selection, to contract award via numerous real case studies and interactive exercises with real-time feedbacks.
