To optimize their cost-cutting efforts, smart companies are turning to their suppliers.
Digital can help procurement teams gain a much deeper understanding of their purchases—and cut costs significantly.
Deploying technology solutions along with conventional best practices can greatly mitigate the risk of future failures.
Conventional approaches alone can’t do it. New digital solutions must also play a role.
Contrary to popular belief, the most successful digitization efforts do not begin with technology decisions. Focus instead on business and procurement objectives.
