Last updated October 31, 2026 5 Days Expert Instructors Certificate Included Online & In-Person Part of TrustGate's [ Procurement & Supply Chain Management programme ](https://trustgatecorporateskills.com/topics/procurement-supply-chain-management)Strategic procurement, contract management and supply chain leadership for public and private organisations. ## Course Overview This Course is designed to strengthen organizational capability to prevent, identify and respond to procurement irregularities, control failures, non-compliance and fraud. Procurement is often exposed to significant financial, operational, legal and reputational risks because it involves expenditure decisions, supplier relationships, tender processes, contracts and substantial discretionary authority. The programme provides participants with a structured approach to evaluating procurement governance, identifying control weaknesses, assessing procurement fraud risks and conducting risk-based procurement audits. Participants examine the complete procurement cycle to identify potential vulnerabilities from procurement planning and specification development through tendering, evaluation, contract award, contract management, payment and disposal. Particular attention is given to common procurement fraud schemes and red flags, including bid manipulation, collusion, conflicts of interest, specification manipulation, fictitious suppliers, inflated pricing, split purchases, duplicate payments and contract-management irregularities. Participants also learn how to design preventive, detective and corrective procurement controls, develop effective audit trails, conduct compliance testing and communicate procurement audit findings to management. **Share this course:** [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftrustgatecorporateskills.com%2Fcourses%2Fprocurement-audit-compliance-fraud-risk-internal-controls-course-programme) [Twitter](https://x.com/intent/post?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftrustgatecorporateskills.com%2Fcourses%2Fprocurement-audit-compliance-fraud-risk-internal-controls-course-programme&text=Procurement+Audit%2C+Compliance%2C+Fraud+Risk+%26+Internal+Controls+Course) [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftrustgatecorporateskills.com%2Fcourses%2Fprocurement-audit-compliance-fraud-risk-internal-controls-course-programme&title=Procurement+Audit%2C+Compliance%2C+Fraud+Risk+%26+Internal+Controls+Course) [WhatsApp](https://api.whatsapp.com/send?text=Procurement+Audit%2C+Compliance%2C+Fraud+Risk+%26+Internal+Controls+Course%20https%3A%2F%2Ftrustgatecorporateskills.com%2Fcourses%2Fprocurement-audit-compliance-fraud-risk-internal-controls-course-programme) ## Learning Objectives - Understand procurement governance and internal control principles. - Identify procurement compliance risks. - Conduct procurement risk assessments. - Evaluate the effectiveness of procurement internal controls. - Identify common procurement fraud schemes. - Recognize procurement fraud red flags. - Assess tendering and bid-evaluation vulnerabilities. - Conduct risk-based procurement audits. - Evaluate supplier and payment-related controls. - Develop effective procurement audit findings and corrective action plans. ## Course Content ### Module 1: Procurement Governance and Control Environment 1.
