Abstract

One challenge that procurement executives face is the perception that procurement is a back-water, tactical function, unable to think and act strategically. This workshop shows how the adoption of a robust Strategic Sourcing process can change that perception, put procurement in a leadership role, and generate exceptional and sustainable results.
