Day 2: The Future of Procurement

10:45 AM PRESENTATION: Executing An Adaptive And Fluid Technology Strategy To Best Fit Your Business Needs

A well-crafted technology strategy is essential for procurement organizations to remain competitive amongst market changes and achieve their long-term goals. A technology strategy aligns everything from IT to operations, with business objectives, ensuring resources are allocated effectively while mitigating risks.

Comparing your teams’ needs with company objectives to better align technology with business-critical requirements (i.e. RFP Automation, etc)
Identifying technology gaps to see if you need a full suite of tools, or more targeted solutions
Building your relationship with IT to stay top of mind for software updates and purchases
Maintaining awareness of technology lifecycles to avoid the ‘new software hype’
