Expediting for On-Schedule Delivery

Late delivery costs money!

A 2-day course

Promised delivery dates are usually key elements in the terms and conditions for the purchase of goods or equipment and it is just as vital that the supplier adheres to them as it is for the others issues of Specification, Price, Quantity and Point of Delivery. Non-performance on delivery means not only that the supplier has failed to satisfy the purchase order but it can have a massive impact on the buyer"s operation by delaying a project, leading to additional costs, leading to an unnecessarily large inventory holding, preventing on-time completion of a critical operation such as a shutdown or turnaround.

All procurement staff at all levels, including beginner, junior and experienced buyers and stock analysts.
