Purchasing departments operate at the hub of communication networks,
with the external system represented by the suppliers, and with the internal
system variously represented by the functional groups of own organisations. It
is, therefore, not surprising for a purchasing personnel to be bogged down by
a great volume of value-subtracting paper transactions resulting from an
ineffective purchasing system and administration. This regularly conducted
two-day workshop assists purchasing practitioners to establish and administer
an effective purchasing system. Participants of this lively workshop will also be
exposed to the practical “know-hows” relating to the achievement of
purchasing efficiency and contribution towards organisational profitability
