Training description
A good procurement service is based on identifying customer needs and the desire to continuously develop procurement as a service. Each customer journey is an individual entity with multiple contact points. Do you identify the service needs and contact points of your internal procurement customers and plan the customer journey, procurement services and action plans based on these?
Be among the first to master a new and critical skill area for every procurement professional in new training.
In the Procurement Service Design training, you will receive fresh methods and a new toolkit for developing procurement in your own organization. In the coaching, we build a toolkit utilizing service design tools.
We will go through the customer-oriented development of procurement, applying service design tools through SPRINT work and going through various business cases. The training is highly participatory and insightful. We rely heavily on combining theory and practice.
After completing the training, you will better understand the customer needs of your procurement clients and be able to respond to these needs.

You will significantly accelerate the development of procurement
You strengthen the role of procurement as a customer-oriented service provider

The training material is based on extensive practical experience and a strong grasp of the latest academic research in the field. During the course, we will discuss and go through case studies and do several group assignments, where you will be able to apply what you have learned in theory to practice. At the same time, you will be equipped to utilize the methods and tools in practice and as a development aid in your own operating environment.
The training is suitable for both product and service procurement and purchasing managers and managers who work in both indirect and direct procurement. In addition, we recommend the course to all other people working in purchasing and procurement activities whose job description includes the strategic development, guidance and management of change processes in procurement activities.
