Our Spend Assessment methodology identifies the most appropriate models for each supplier category, helping the procurement department analyze spending and plan future actions.
In the traditional view, the procurement professional had a limited, undifferentiated role and was generally transferred from another area of the company where he or she had not performed satisfactorily.
Activities were limited to ensuring the supply of products or services in response to purchase requests issued by internal requesters, and the relationship with the supplier market was characterized by friendly ties. In recent decades, the procurement function has undergone a true revolution, and today it is common to see positions such as CPO (Chief Procurement Officer) or vice president of procurement in large organizations, thereby reaching a level of strategic importance and being recognized as capable of helping companies achieve long-term results. To meet the expectations created around this “new” function, it is essential for a procurement manager to plan their actions so as not to limit themselves exclusively to operational activities and incident management within the department.
As such, applying the Spend Assessment or Spend Analysis methodology helps procurement managers plan their short-, medium-, and long-term actions so that they are aligned with the organization’s strategy.
