TestimonialsBelow is a sample for previous CIPS procurement fraud master classes

which have been run by Paul Guile Agmat Ally, Strategic Sourcing and

Operational Purchasing Manager, Denel Aerostructures (SOC) Ltd. South

Africa. “I had recently attended the Fraud in Procurement Master Class

with my team. At first I thought a workshop in procurement fraud should

not take three days and had my reservations about attending but too my

amazement it was one of the best courses/workshops that we have at-

tended in a long time. The layout of the course content over the three days

was perfect based on the amount of information covered. The presentation

and facilitation of the content was excellent. Mr. Paul Guile is extremely

knowledgeable on the subject and is indeed an expert in the field of Pro-

curement Fraud. We have returned to the office and strengthened internal

controls as well as implemented new policies and procedures and practices

to assist in deterring procurement fraud. My team is now appreciative of

the knowledge gained and always “Check” I would most definitely recom-

mend that all within the Procurement Fraternity attend the Paul Guile

Master Class in Procurement Fraud, Check, Check and Check again’. Wayne

Flanagan , University of Fort Hare, South Africa After attending the Master

Class: Fraud in Procurement I find it difficult to trust any documentation

that comes my way. I found the course to be an absolute eye opener. I

would suggest that all Procurement Officials/Officer attend this information

sharing training session and become equipped with the knowledge that is

gained from attending a workshop of this nature. Paul is totally focused on

this subject matter which comes across very clearly during the presentation

of the workshop. The workshop is also conducted in a very relaxed atmos-

phere with all delegates participating throughout the workshop. Agnes

Mwanza, Senior Buyer, Mopani Copper Mines, Zambia The “Master Class”

fraud workshop was excellent.

been investigated by the conference facilitator who has

carried out and is currently carrying complex and challenging

procurement fraud investigations globally. We will discuss risk

analysis and risk identification, prevention including best practice

approaches, detection and investigation

whereas needed. In sum, the training in procurement fraud has highly

impacted on my professional knowledge and empowers my understand-

ing deeply to how practically and professionally deal with fraud cases in

procurement process, If happens. I would highly recommend this training

to people who are involved in procurementmanagement and other senior

management in organizations who would love to have a healthy procure-

ment process in place within their organizations. Olusoji Funsho

Fakunle, PhD, Security Investigations Coordinator, Chevron Oil, Nigeria I

enjoyed every bit of the time I spent on the Procurement Fraud training

and I’ve learnt quite a lot from your wealth of experience, which you did

not hesitate to share with us. The course was an eye-opener to the level

& style of Fraud that is going on around the world and it has helped to

sharpen my investigative skills. I hope one day, I will be able to assist my

company in nipping in the bud cases of Fraud, before they become mani-

fest, with what I am able to learn from you. Evan Darcy, Procurement

Superintendent, Shared Services, Phu Bia Mining Limited Having attended

the Fraud Master Class Workshop in Malaysia earlier in the year, I was

impressed with the ease in which the course materials and presentations

were made in a simple, yet effective format. Paul is an excellent

communicator and presenter who is passionate about the subject of

fraud and inherent business risks.

It opened my eyes to the number of various touch-points from

procurement that were at a susceptible risk of fraud and upon my return

to work, immediately implemented several reporting methods that are

still in use today. I also recommended to the business that a tailor made

course be held for the organization to suit our industry & region, which

was well attended and appreciated on a number of different levels. I

thoroughly recommend the services of Paul Guile to any business - even if

they think that they don’t have a fraud issue. Brian Lillywhite,

Director - Internal Affairs Division, Papua New Guinea Customs Service I

found the course to be thought provoking, more than interesting, most

useful and well presented. This course is ideal not only for developed

countries but more importantly for developing nations. The course

content itself is most relevant, and occasionally brought raised eye brows

and little smiles of embarrassment to faces of participants. Raised eye

brows from realising something new or over-looked and embarrassment

for things know but having turned a blind-eye to. It pointed out in no

simple terms the major problems faced with Procurement Fraud. I have

attended a few other courses but would have to say this was one of the

best if not the best so far. I would highly recommend this course for

people especially interested in fighting mismanagement of funds and

those standing against corruption.

I initially had reservations as I had pre-conceived ideas from previously

attended courses. Obviously I was wrong. Your course is informative and

educative. It outlines ways to detect fraud and how to resolve it”. You also

came up with different types of forms which can assist in policy

formulation/ implementation; this is very helpful and will assist

in convincing my Manager.

Overall, your presentation of the course and materials therein is very

good and professionally done. You sure know what you are into and

enjoy doing it. Khaled Yousef, Internal Audit Manager, AlSuhaimi Group -

Internal Audit & Compliance “I attended this class aiming at gaining some

extra knowledge about Procurement fraud, but what I got was much

more, the instructor was great person with great personality and excellent

presenter, the course was intensive, comprehensive and well structured. I

came back to my work bringing lots of new ideas, policies and procedures

and best practices which will definitely enhance the internal controls over

procurement activities and add value to my organization.” William

Sheeran , Group Head - Procurement at Royal Group (UAE) “I attended

the Procurement Fraud Masterclass in Dubai in March 2012. I found this

course to be very useful, informative and relevant to my role. I gained a

great deal of insight into how to identify and investigate procurement

fraud. The course was very intense however, the inclusive training style

ensured that maximum benefit was gained” Amitava Baksi, Chief Procure-

ment (RM & Global Mineral Resources ) I Raw Materials Division, Tata

Steel Limited, India

“I attended the Procurement Fraud Master class in Singapore during

July 2012. It was very informative and pertinent in the current business

environment globally. I strongly believe that every organisation should

create an awareness and preparedness to safeguard itself from any such

procurement fraud. The program focused on the enhancement of knowl-

edge in this field through a mix of the theoretical inputs and workshop

exercise which was very well received by all the participants. Your input

on the structure for formulation of procurement fraud strategy and its

deployment was also very meaningful. Abdul Zia, Procurement Manager,

Aga Khan Foundation, Afghanistan The trainer was excellent, he used to

present the training contains in a very professional method, and bring the

vital points in to discussions board among the participants. I really loved

the training arrangements in term of materials, facilities and venue. The

training was unique in contains, besides the trainer made it more advan-

tageous with his wide skill in presentation and practical experience in pro-

curement fraud investigations. This training helped me out to learn more

in procurement fraud, and ways to control it and investigate whereas

needed. In sum, the training in procurement fraud has highly impacted on

my professional knowledge and empowers my understanding deeply to

how practically and professionally deal with fraud cases in procurement

fraud, and ways to control it and investigate
