How do you build Strategies to Scale Sourcing Excellence at Speed
Automation isn’t just a buzzword; it’s a necessity for modern procurement teams. What does that mean in a sourcing context for different type spend categories?
Scaling sourcing excellence requires a blend of modern tools, smart automation, effective change management, and a strategic approach to adoption. It requires seamless integration with other systems such as ERP and P2P systems. It requires moving away from Excel.
During this session we’ll dive into how to establish best practices, automate tedious processes and scale sourcing activities effectively to meet ever growing corporate demands.
Learn more about and discuss
- What are common sourcing optimization bottlenecks?
- Which type sourcing events are suitable to automate and how is it done?
- How do you communicate with and follow up suppliers manually versus in an automated way?
