Sourcing and Partnering Selection WEBINAR
Brief description of the webinar
Supplier selection is a challenge and the need to consider international candidates is much more complex than buying domestically.
Differences in cultures, laws, communications, currencies, and more have to be understood to support worldwide procurement. If you don't have a good foundation, your procurement efforts will have a higher probability of failing.
In this webinar, you will learn how to assess the differences that you may experience with suppliers from different parts of the world resulting in high performing low cost suppliers.
Who should take this webinar?
Individuals involved in the evaluation and selection of new suppliers/business partners
