During my upcoming webinar, “User-Friendly, User-Powerful: The New Consumerization of Procurement“, this Thursday at 2 PM, I will moderate a lively discussion on what it takes for CPOs and procurement departments to achieve “consumerized P2P” processes.
It has become a standard refrain, “why is it so easy to do “fill-in-the blank” process at home, but it is so hard to do the same thing at work?” Since the rise of the internet, critics have decried the large gap between consumer (or B2C) and business (or B2B) technologies. The simple fact of the matter is that these technologies (B2C and B2B) were designed for two entirely different constituencies using entirely different design principles. But…some supply management solution providers have taken notice and worked aggressively to change their approach to make more their offerings more usable and more powerful. In 2020, the consumerization of procurement has become more than an ideal, it is necessity.
Join me, this Thursday, July 23rd at 2 PM ET, along with special guests, as we discuss Best-in-Class procurement departments and the importance and power of usable procurement solutions. Register here.
