Eight courses, one method.
Strategic Sourcing Fundamentals: the 7-step process
From opportunity assessment to an implemented agreement: spend analysis, category profiles, strategy, RFx, negotiation and implementation, with the templates we use in real projects.
Fact-Based Negotiation & Should-Cost
Build a should-cost model, set targets and a walk-away point, and negotiate on facts instead of asking for discounts.
Source-to-Pay: from contract to invoice
Turn contracts into catalogs and PO rules, set up approvals and three-way match, and stop paying above contract price.
Supplier Risk & Resilience
Map single-source exposure, score suppliers on risk and performance, and build multi-source and continuity plans for critical parts.
CAPEX & Long-Lead Equipment Procurement
Source transformers, switchgear, generators and cooling: manage lead times, expediting, factory acceptance and critical spares.
S&OP for Mid-Size Manufacturers
Run a monthly S&OP cycle that aligns sales, operations, procurement and finance on one plan, with the right inventory levels.
LEAN for Supply Chain & Procurement
Value stream mapping of the buying process, Kanban and min-max agreements with suppliers, and removing waste from purchase to payment.
AI Agents in Procurement
What to automate, what to keep human, and how to govern AI agents in sourcing and procurement, with live examples from the Hex Squad.
