Wel­come to a break­fast sem­i­nar on 23rd March to hear about strate­gic procurement. 

The jour­ney towards tru­ly strate­gic pro­cure­ment requires orga­ni­za­tion around pro­cure­ment – depend­ing on your cur­rent sit­u­a­tion, this can mean cen­tral­iz­ing oper­a­tions or, for exam­ple, defin­ing pro­cure­ment cat­e­gories. Regard­less of your start­ing point, the focus of pro­cure­ment devel­op­ment is on automat­ing rou­tine man­u­al process­es with mod­ern solu­tions seam­less­ly inte­grat­ed into ERP and finan­cial sys­tems to ensure that pro­cure­ment process­es are con­trolled, trace­able and auto­mat­ed on a sin­gle plat­form. Process costs in the pro­cure­ment area can be sig­nif­i­cant and reduc­ing them allows resources to be redi­rect­ed to pro­cure­ment devel­op­ment activities.

Join our break­fast sem­i­nar to receive con­crete steps to man­age pro­cure­ment events cen­tral­ly with a user-friend­ly, scal­able and trans­par­ent solu­tion that address­es the chal­lenges of pro­cure­ment, now and in the future.

Places for this event are lim­it­ed so reg­is­ter soon!
