Turn on specialist Procurement support
A modern Procurement function needs to do numerous things well and it can be hard for CPO’s to find talent, devote attention, and deliver the best possible service across the entire scope of their operation. Often using a partner may be a better option. Part of the CPO’s challenge is to spot this opportunity to improve and continue driving their function forward.
