challenge. On the one hand there is risk of stock out and building up of excess inventory on the other.
Hence, maintaining inventory at optimum level is essential for business organisation which can lead to

can be said that a company is known by the vendors it keeps. In today’s competitive environment,
progressive firms must be able to produce quality products at reasonable prices. Product quality is a
direct result of the production workforce and suppliers. Buying organisation can no longer afford to

Negotiations Details of 1-day Training on “Negotiations Skills for Procurement Professionals”
Introduction
Negotiation is a two way communication where in the dealing parties always have some issues on which
the settlement is sought. All such issues provide the subject matter for the negotiation. It should also be
noted that negotiation is possible only for those issues which are subject to settlement under various
alternative sources. There cannot be any negotiation for an issue which has the one and the only
solution.
Indigenous concepts by the faculty: Faculty has used past participants for the research purposes. Based on this research, faculty has
developed following forms indigenously:
a) Request For Proposal (RFP) (this is very exhaustive document and when this document is used, nothing
will go wrong while ordering the material)
b) Pre-negotiation Costing Sheet
c) Pre-negotiation Planning Sheet
d) Post-negotiation Evaluation Sheet
e) Negotiations Record Sheet
All these documents are developed indigenously. Participants will not get these in any book or website.
How this training is different from soft skills? Purchase negotiations are derived from material requirements, vendor development measures etc. For
this reasonable knowledge of the concepts of materials management like inventory planning, purchase
procedures, quality parameters, pricing etc is essential. Therefore, three fourth of the programme
duration will be devoted in discussion of these topics. Participants will also get sample RFQ that our
faculty has prepared indigenously. The comprehensiveness of the RFQ eliminates unwanted discussions
in negotiations. Soft skills are important in negotiations but in purchase negotiations their requirement is
not more than 10%
What after the training?
Once sufficient numbers of these sheets are accumulated, they can analyse the details. The analyses
gives insight in showing pattern in their negotiation styles and develop further negotiation commoditywise or product-wise strategy. The training on negotiations skills in real sense happens on analysing these
evaluation sheets.

a)

Strategic Details of 2-day Training Programme on Strategic Procurement
Introduction: - Purchase is no longer a support function or attached to the apron strings of production
department. In an environment characterized by many unknowns, purchasing professionals must assist
general management by providing purchasing expertise for strategic decisions. Purchasing can assist in
calculating the probable impact of outside factors on supply, quality and price. However, ground reality is
different. In many companies procurement professionals are locked in the grind of fulfilling the
requirements of the user department or chasing the suppliers for myriad reasons. Against this backdrop
they have little time to sit back and reflect on what they are doing. This programme is designed to
improve the understanding of the participants about strategic aspects of purchase function vis-à-vis
developing their analytical skills.

importance.
Objectives of this programme: - While taking decisions, rather than studying the situation analytically,
our decisions are based on “gut feeling”. Look around and you will find that people from certain function
become CEO. This is because of lack of their analytical skills. Objective of this programme is to give
analytical teeth to all the decision makers.

Directors, Directors, Admin Heads, Entrepreneurs, self-independent businesspersons and so on.
Topics that will not be discussed: - Since this training is for senior level participants or decision makers,
concepts of inventory management like calculation of EOQ or demand forecasting will not be discussed.

  • 8. Negotiations Details of 1-day Training on “Negotiations Skills for Procurement Professionals” Introduction Negotiation is a two way communication where in the dealing parties always have some issues on which the settlement is sought. All such issues provide the subject matter for the negotiation. It should also be noted that negotiation is possible only for those issues which are subject to settlement under various alternative sources. There cannot be any negotiation for an issue which has the one and the only solution. Indigenous concepts by the faculty: Faculty has used past participants for the research purposes. Based on this research, faculty has developed following forms indigenously: a) Request For Proposal (RFP) (this is very exhaustive document and when this document is used, nothing will go wrong while ordering the material) b) Pre-negotiation Costing Sheet c) Pre-negotiation Planning Sheet d) Post-negotiation Evaluation Sheet e) Negotiations Record Sheet All these documents are developed indigenously. Participants will not get these in any book or website. How this training is different from soft skills? Purchase negotiations are derived from material requirements, vendor development measures etc. For this reasonable knowledge of the concepts of materials management like inventory planning, purchase procedures, quality parameters, pricing etc is essential. Therefore, three fourth of the programme duration will be devoted in discussion of these topics. Participants will also get sample RFQ that our faculty has prepared indigenously. The comprehensiveness of the RFQ eliminates unwanted discussions in negotiations. Soft skills are important in negotiations but in purchase negotiations their requirement is not more than 10% What after the training? Once sufficient numbers of these sheets are accumulated, they can analyse the details. The analyses gives insight in showing pattern in their negotiation styles and develop further negotiation commoditywise or product-wise strategy. The training on negotiations skills in real sense happens on analysing these evaluation sheets. On completion of this training course, participants will be able to: a) b) c) d) e) f) g) Understand concept of Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Distinguish between adversarial and partnership negotiation approaches Importance of Kraljic Matrix and how to categorise vendors based on this matrix Understand the process of negotiation Recognise some negotiating skills and ploys Understand various behavioural styles of negotiations Understand how to evaluate the negotiations with the suppliers
