The Topics Addressed At The 2008 Conference Included:
- Sustainability – Learn how you can put in place tools and processes to accurately measure your company’s carbon footprint, and practical steps to offset it or minimise its impact. Also get a deeper understanding of the fundamentals of lean supply chain principles and six sigma and how to marry these with your sustainability agenda
- Global Sourcing And Spend Visibility – Learn from best in class procurement organisations what steps you need to take to become ‘best practice’ in spend visibility, supplier relationships and risk management globally and increase your strategic focus on key category management
- Demonstrating the increasing strategic value of procurement internally and externally – how can you convince top management, internal stakeholders and key suppliers of the strategic value (beyond just cost savings) that procurement can provide, and how do you measure this additional value? And where does the path of the CPO lead? Where to next?
