Since 2000, the global economy has been increasingly driven through its supply chain. Now, the global supply chain is under attack. Once again, CPOs have been called to the front lines to defend their businesses, lead their teams, and ensure continuity. Attacks and threats are coming from all angles. But, the challenge of each day presents opportunities within it. And, as we continue to navigate these disruptive days, it is clear that many of an enterprise’s best opportunities (and most critical priorities) will play to the strengths and expertise of its procurement department. Until then, resiliency is the order of the day. It is a global imperative and it serves as a call to procurement leaders and professionals around the world to respond with agility and poise – a call that many have spent years preparing for… a call that will be answered.
Ardent Partners is pleased to announce the release of its latest research eBook – “The Procurement Metrics that Matter in 2020″. These “Metrics that Matter” represent a window into the performance of procurement operations. Over the past few years, Chief Procurement Officers (CPOs) and other supply management leaders have been using metrics other that Spend under Management, identified/booked, and realized/actual savings as key performance indicators (KPIs) with which to assess and drive their operations. These metrics still matter, but procurement performance is more than dollars and cents; it’s also about winning influence, driving innovation, and managing and mitigating an ever-growing risk landscape. This eBook is only available for a limited time, so get your copy today!
