The 2013 Procurement & Strategic Forum addresses procurement and sourcing challenges ahead and provides an opportunity for chief procurement officers to share best practices and explore new strategies for 2013 and beyond.
“As corporations deal with increasingly strained budgets, the procurement function has assumed more importance than ever before, serving as a central component in overall organizational strategy,” said Paul Mandell, Founder & Chief Executive Officer, Consero. “This Forum, which is the first of its kind hosted by Consero, addresses the current and imminent challenges facing Chief Procurement Officers as they navigate today’s complex and rapidly evolving economic landscape. The event will address issues relevant to Chief Procurement Officers, including methods for maintaining their course in economic headwinds, streamlining procurement operations for efficiency and savings, and sourcing qualified talent in the new procurement world.”
