Purchasing Negotiation Essentials
Intermediate

Purchasing Negotiation Essentials

Negotiate with purpose. Create value beyond price. Strong purchasing negotiations are not about pushing suppliers for the lowest price. They are about knowing what matters, preparing the right position, asking the right questions, and knowing when—and how—to trade. Purchasing Negotiation Essentials is a practical, self-paced course designed for procurement and supply chain professionals who want to become more confident and commercially effective in supplier negotiations. You’ll learn how to prepare for negotiations, understand BATNA, ZOPA and leverage, uncover supplier interests, negotiate across multiple commercial variables, respond to price increases, manage concessions, and close agreements with clarity and confidence. The course takes you through a structured negotiation process: Prepare → Open → Explore → Propose → Bargain → Agree Rather than relying on theory alone, you’ll work through practical scenarios, exercises and a final negotiation simulation. You’ll also receive the ProcmentSkills Purchasing Negotiation Toolkit—a collection of ready-to-use templates and checklists you can apply to real supplier negotiations. Whether you're negotiating a new supplier deal, challenging a quotation, discussing payment and delivery terms, responding to a price increase, or renewing a contract, this course gives you a practical framework you can take straight back to work. Build the skills to negotiate better deals—not just lower prices.

Reading Incoterms 2020 with Confidence

Reading Incoterms 2020 with Confidence

Incoterms can look simple—just three letters on a quotation or purchase order. But choosing or interpreting the wrong term can mean unexpected freight costs, customs problems, insurance gaps, or taking responsibility for damaged goods without realising it. Reading Incoterms 2020 with Confidence is a practical, easy-to-follow course that helps you understand what Incoterms actually mean in real purchasing and international shipping situations. You’ll learn how to read terms such as EXW, FCA, FOB, CPT, CIP, DAP and DDP, understand where cost and risk transfer, and recognise common mistakes before they become costly problems. Built around realistic quotations, purchase orders and shipment scenarios, the course goes beyond memorising definitions. The aim is simple: when you see an Incoterm on a commercial document, you should know what it means for you.

Supply Chain Resilience Master Class
Advanced

Supply Chain Resilience Master Class

Historic shocks and geopolitical conflicts have shattered the illusion that supply networks can operate purely on steady-state, low-cost efficiency. Procurement professionals now face severe bottlenecks and the bullwhip effect, exposing critical vulnerabilities in traditional just-in-time models. To prevent margin erosion, leaders must shift from reactive firefighting to designing adaptable networks that absorb highly probable disruptions. Building resilience requires mastering new strategies for mapping multi-tier suppliers and executing flow-casting over outdated forecasting methods. You will learn to revamp lean inventory systems with strategic buffers, leverage artificial intelligence for automated supplier negotiations, and cascade ethical sustainability practices down the chain. Ultimately, you will walk away with practical frameworks to balance regional sourcing and secure your operations against future crises.
