The secret diary of an overworked procurement manager
We asked 200 senior business management and procurement professionals at fast growth mid-sized businesses about the pain points their department has experienced as their organization has expanded.
Based on the research findings we’ve created a series of six fictional diary extracts from an overworked and under resourced procurement manager, each one reflecting common pain points identified in our real world study. With demands from all areas of the business on cost reduction, supplier performance, spend visibility, and spend control (amongst others!) our procurement manager’s to-do list keeps mounting up!
The growing pains are:
- Managing rising costs
- Outgrowing your supplier base
- Ineffective supplier management
- Little visibility of cash and spending
- Lack of innovative systems and technology
- Poorly equipped for external acquisition or investment
