The Great Procurement Reset: Five Musts for Managing Business Spend in the Modern Economy
Today’s market moves fast. Blink and you’ll miss what happened.
Consider the fluidity and severity of the macro variables we face today - inflation, supply disruption, geo-political risks, ESG requirements and more. Not only do these variables change constantly, they all have the power to bring supply chain operations to a standstill and hamper financial results.
The stakes are high - especially as calls for a potential recession pick up steam. To conquer today’s volatility and stay relevant in the face of whatever tomorrow brings, procurement and AP leaders everywhere are evaluating where they are exposed, how they operate and what needs to change to remain resilient and profitable.
Spend management should be near the top of this operational assessment. Implemented effectively, spend management programs can help drive strategic business objectives, improve financial outcomes and help navigate uncertainty. Implemented poorly, they put you at risk and make it harder to pivot in the face of change.
Join us on 8 June for an in-depth look at ways traditional spend management practices can be modernised to increase agility and performance.
