Buyer’s Action Plan

1. Regularly re-assess your supplier short-list when tendering for learning solutions. Ensure you look for a range of options to understand the different cost and quality options.

2. Consider diversifying your procurement approach by exploring alternative options including online market places that provide access to a different range of specialists and suppliers to resource projects or share tenders. You could also consider non-traditional suppliers such as those now working in learning but with a media or communications background.

3. Ensure you have a robust business case for each project and initiative. Measure and assess learning impact, reporting back to stakeholders the value your digital learning has contributed to broader organisations goals.

4. Harness the infrastructure and tools that are already embedded in your organisation.

5. Increase the use of user generated content and adopt community based learning approaches, rather than assuming learning content is always the answer.
