According to the Cambridge Dictionary,
procurement
is ‘the process by which an organization buys the products or services
it needs from other organizations’. However, for us at
W&JN, this doesn’t quite encompass everything
procurement is or the impact it can have on businesses.
Procurement can help an organization achieve its business goals by
buying goods and services in a profitable and ethical way. The ways to
achieve this range from cost optimization, reviewing suppliers following
mergers and acquisitions, implementing and accelerating digital
transformation, building reliant supply chains to the transformation of
internal procurement functions and so much more.
To deliver the best possible service, a modern procurement consultant
needs to establish a clear procurement strategy, process and plan in
order to continue driving their function forward.
