Kursinnehåll
This course adapts the following definition of purchasing management: Purchasing management refers to all activities necessary to manage supplier relationships in such a way that their activities are aligned with the company's overall business strategies and interests. It is focused on structuring and continuously improving purchasing processes within the organization and between the organization and its suppliers (van Weele, 2010:11). The term supply management underlines the inter-organisational nature of these tasks as well as their potential strategic impact. The various teaching and learning activities address the following: Role and relevance of purchasing in the 21st century organisation Organising for effective purchasing performanceMake-or-buy (outsourcing)Sourcing strategies (including products vs. services)Managing various types of supplier relationshipsSupplier selection, assessment and developmentTotal cost of ownershipSupplier interfacesSupply chain risk and disruptionsCarbon footprint, codes of conduct, and triple bottom line (economic, social and environmental aspects)Implications of Internet-based marketplaces for purchasingPurchasing in different industrial settingsSupply chain theory
