About the CRFPPM Program
Procurement carries more fraud exposure than most functions, from bid rigging and supplier collusion to invoice manipulation and conflicts of interest. This program shows buying teams where the risk sits, how schemes are actually run, and which controls stop them without slowing the business. Participants review real scheme patterns, test their own process for gaps and build a control action plan. Delivered in-house at the client's premises or live virtual for procurement and finance teams.
