Course Description
The eSourcing Capability Model for Client Organizations (eSCM-CL) is a “best practices” capability model with two purposes: (1) to give client organizations guidance that will help them improve their capability across the sourcing life-cycle, and (2) to provide client organizations with an objective means of evaluating their sourcing capability.

The eSourcing Capability Model for Client Organizations course introduces participants to the concepts, terminology, and structure of the Model and the interrelationships of the Model components. Participants will gain an understanding of the value of the Model for clients and service providers, learn about the eSCM-CL’s practices for sourcing, identify major characteristics of client organizations at different capability levels, gain an introductory understanding of how the Capability Determination Process is carried out, and be given ideas for introducing eSCM-CL in their organizations. Participants who have successfully completed the course will receive a certificate of completion.

Materials
As part of the course, participants will receive the Model, “eSourcing Capability Model for Client Organizations,” the course notebook and supplemental readings.
