The profile of modern purchasing has changed! Purchasing makes a significant contribution for the corporate success. That is why the employee in the purchasing department has to develop from a mere “writer of orders”, which means a purely operative kind of purchaser, towards a strategically thinking one. Strategically thinking purchasers are team members in their company, who constitute the interface to the sourcing market.

The participants of this seminar will study the methods of strategic planning and analysis. Since they know about economic dependencies they are in a permanent dialog with the other areas of activity and the partners within the supply chain.

• Development/Meaning of purchasing and its share in the corporate success
• Business goal - sourcing goal - employee goal
• Potential analysis as a basis of purchasing strategies:
  • ABC-Analysis 
  • XYZ-Analysis
• Sourcing market research: analysis, observation, prognosis
• Analysis methods and strategies for building up external potentials for success, e.g.:
  • supplier portfolio
  • different sourcing strategies
• Analysis methods and strategies for building up internal potentials for success, e.g.:
  • personnel strategy
  • process strategy (e-procuremen, C-parts management)
• Operating numbers for measuring the success of purchasing

Qualified employees from purchasing, materials administration and logistics, woh will increasingly take over tasks of strategig sourcing management in the future
