We will examine the nature of procurement fraud and its typologies including the areas of the procurement lifecycle where fraud and corruption can occur. We will reveal the areas within projects that can be targeted and the individuals and roles that can illicitly manipulate or influence areas of projects for their own or others financial benefit. We will also scrutinise the many data sources that can be used to profile procurement fraud risk within an organisation. By the end of the course you will have an understanding of the complexities of procurement fraud and how it can occur and be able to create a procurement fraud risk matrix that you can use to profile organisation procurement fraud risk and as a briefing tool for senior management.
