FAQ

Outsourcing Training Procurement

What is outsourcing training procurement?

The outsourcing of training procurement involves entrusting to a specialized provider the operational and financial management related to training expenses of an organization.
It aims to secure processes, streamline administrative exchanges and optimize budget management.

This management may include:

  • The compliance verification and supplier registration.
  • The issuance and tracking of purchase orders with training organizations and your associated service providers (accommodation, catering, logistics).
  • The centralization and validation of invoices.
  • Compliance with payment deadlines and the management of your financial flows.
  • The use of real-time digital tracking tools.
  • The implementation of customized budget reports to improve your management of training budgets.
  • The production of a monthly re-invoicing file to facilitate your accounting entry.

Which expenses are covered by outsourcing training procurement?

The outsourcing of training procurement covers all expenses related to the deployment of a skills development plan.
It applies to all pedagogical methods (in-person, digital learning, blended learning) and to all training modalities.

The purchase mandate also applies to all currencies and all types of purchases that you choose (catering, accommodation, printing, support, etc.).

What benefits can be gained from outsourcing training procurement?

Engaging a provider to outsource training procurement helps relieve HR and accounting teams of the administrative and financial burden associated with supplier management.
This approach improves the fluidity of operations and strengthens expenditure control.

The main benefits are:

  • Reduction of administrative burden through the processing of orders, invoices, and supplier registrations.
  • Securing processing times and payments.
  • Enhanced visibility on financial commitments and budget tracking.
  • Cost optimization through negotiation and centralized purchasing management.

The gains are measured at two levels:

  • Financially: budget control, more efficient cash flow management, and simplification of VAT declaration processes.
  • Organizationally: time savings for internal teams, process reliability, reporting consolidation, and improved supplier relationship quality.

Does outsourcing modify the employer's legal obligations?

No. Outsourcing training procurement does not transfer the legal responsibility of the company.
Given Article L6321-1 of the Labor Code,

The provider takes on operational tasks but the company retains the obligation to define priorities, validate choices, and ensure compliance with the legal framework.

What is the impact on VAT declaration?

Outsourcing training procurement does not impact the company’s VAT obligations.

The company remains responsible for VAT verification, declaration, and processing. Outsourcing allows for entrusting the administrative management of purchases, but not the tax responsibility. Nevertheless, the provider makes controlled and qualified data available to facilitate the VAT declaration for outsourced training purchases.

Note: In France, certain training actions may be exempt from VAT when they fall under continuous vocational training and are provided by an organization declared to DREETS.

To learn more: Article 261-4-4° a of the General Tax Code, https://bofip.impots.gouv.fr/bofip/943-PGP.html/identifiant=BOI-TVA-CHAMP-30-10-20-50-20191016

What deliverables are provided as part of outsourcing training procurement?

As part of outsourcing training procurement, the company generally receives several deliverables, such as:

  • A detailed report and personalized follow-up.
  • Precise monthly re-invoicing files to simplify your VAT declarations.
  • Reports adapted to the company’s needs.
