Assess and resolve realistic procurement challenges using structured problem solving and multi stakeholder alignment. Topics include triage and root cause analysis for supplier bankruptcy, product obsolescence, delivery delays, and quality failures; quantifying business impact and total cost of ownership; developing contingency plans and supplier transition strategies; contractual remedies and escalation paths; regulatory and compliance considerations; and communicating trade offs and outcomes to internal stakeholders.
