About this book
Technology offerings for supply management are changing rapidly. To outpace the competition, today's firms must be able to understand and implement the latest advances. This book explains how to incorporate the use of supply management technology into advanced sourcing practices to produce significant competitive advantage. On-Demand Supply Management offers new tools and advice to facilitate the internal technology debate between procurement, IT and finance executives to enable faster adoption of the correct strategies and tools to lower procurement costs and improve bottom-line results. It also provides a practitioner's view of decision-making processes and adoption challenges that come with constantly evolving technologies. The authors examine IT investment (including make or buy), training, supplier relationship management, corporate governance issues (including Sarbanes-Oxley) and which metrics must be in place for success. This book is a must read for anyone involved in procurement and supply management, and for executives in finance, information technology, manufacturing and R&D.
