Big Ideas Summit 2016: Big Idea #25 – Collaboration is King

Collaboration is king, particularly when it comes to procurement. And it can also help drive huge benefits across the board.

At the Big Ideas Summit 2016, we challenged our thought leaders to share their Big Ideas for the future of procurement.

From ideas that have the potential to change the very nature of the procurement profession, to ones that got the assembled minds thinking about the profession’s impact outside of the organisation, the response we received was amazing.

Building Cross-Sector Collaboration

Kavita Cooper, founder at Novo-K, argues that it’s time for procurement to become more active in collaboration, particularly between the private sector and the charity sector.

Kavita says there are huge benefits in building this collaborative environment. Procurement professionals can build their skills, while charities can tap into tools and best practice from the private sector. Additionally, there are benefits for society, with charities being able to focus on their beneficiaries and purpose.
