(See below for participation details)
Finance has traditionally counted on — and valued — the procurement function strictly for its ability to cut costs, giving the bottom line a much-appreciated lift. But in this new report, which surveyed 263 finance executives from North America, Europe, and Asia, almost three-quarters of respondents say that the finance function at their company has grown more strategic-minded over the last three years. In this webcast, we'll delve into the survey results — as well as sharing what we've learned from our in-depth interviews with more than half a dozen senior finance executives around the globe — to tell you how procurement's changing role might help your business gain a sustainable competitive edge.
