Global economies and organisations understand the risks around procurement fraud but is enough being done to prevent it?

Procurement fraud is a risk for all organisations that carry out any form of procurement activity. In reality that applies to virtually every organisation globally, on a daily basis.  The published risks to both the public and private sectors are immense and the losses are well documented.

This course will provide you with practical experience and the ‘know how’ to tackle procurement fraud ‘head on’.  We will provide you with the tools to go back to your organisations so that you will be able to carry out an internal organisation ‘health check’ and where required implement your own procurement fraud strategies.

Many procurement groups find it a tough battle to get their voice heardCPD 7 hours within their organisations.  They are often involved too late, or even not at all.  Companies still have a rather out-dated view of what procurement can do, and can see the function at best, as administrators and at worst, as obstructive and bureaucratic.

This MasterClass will give you the tools, techniques and insights on how to change that perspective, and to start being the real business partner that procurement can be.

Procurement risk management (PRM) is a subject that is long on words,CPD 7 hours full of different interpretations, and often short on actual help. In this highly interactive masterclass, Dick Russill takes a fresh and concise look at the subject and offers a lively and structured approach to assessing your company’s PRM state-of-health and then helping you doing something about it. ‘Third party, fire and theft’ may be OK for some companies, but this masterclass is possibly the only forum presenting the fully comprehensive package.
