Persistent global uncertainty is severely straining procurement teams, making it increasingly difficult for category managers to stay informed and make agile decisions. In this context, technology plays a key role in rendering the decision making process faster and more precise. 

In our WBR response report we detailed how the Chief Procurement Officer's (CPO) top priority for the next 12 months is mitigating supply chain disruptions. This focus on minimizing disruptions highlights the proactive role procurement professionals must play in risk management within an increasingly volatile global market.

These days, procurement professionals are inundated with a constant stream of news and information that affects supply chains. From geopolitical events and natural disasters to market trends and new regulations, staying informed about the factors impacting one’s own supply chains is crucial to making informed decisions.

The WBR AI in Procurement report highlights the rapid adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) within the procurement function but also underscores the mixed results and challenges faced by many organizations.

The Procurement and SupplyChain LIVE event was held on 5 and 6 June 2024, connecting the world’s Procurement and Supply Chain Leaders in North America and Canada. The event aimed to serve as a virtual platform to network and connect with like-minded peers and established companies in these regions.

For Chief Procurement Officers (CPOs) and other procurement leaders, 2024 is a changing landscape filled with challenges and opportunities. Staying ahead of the curve requires a strategic focus on key priorities that drive efficiency, resilience, and value creation.

Chief Procurement Officers (CPOs) understand the critical importance of delivering bottom-line savings in achieving operational efficiency and financial success. With 32% of CPOs having identified bottom-line savings as a top focus for this year*, this reflects their strategic mindset and commitment to value creation.

Strategizing and budgeting are essential procurement and category management requirements for shaping a corporate view of categories. But how to begin? 

In today's fast-paced business world, 35% of Chief Procurement Officers (CPOs) see technology as a top priority, as reported in our WBR response report. This shift reflects a move towards smarter, more efficient procurement operations.
