Where Sourcing Meets Innovation Where Sourcing Meets Innovation September 28-30, 2015 · Wigwam, Phoenix, AZ Sponsored By: Organized By: PIW 2015: WHERE SOURCING MEETS INNOVATION PAGE 2 WELCOME Dear friend of ProcureCon, If you think about the key functions of your job just eight years ago versus today, you’ll note that there has been quite a dramatic shift! We’ve seen procurement evolve from 1.0 (purchase orders, RFPs, and other tactical functions) to 2.0 (strategic sourcing and value creation), and now to 3.0 (innovation, business intelligence and revenue generation.) Given these rapid industry advancements, you need a place to learn how to successfully transition to the next phase of your procurement journey. ProcureCon Indirect West is just that place. At this year’s event, you will learn how the rise of Procurement 3.0 will elevate your procurement function beyond the strategic into a true internal business intelligence unit for your company — arming you with a comprehensive plan for implementing the latest strategic sourcing solutions through a variety of peer-led interactive sessions. Key themes at this year’s event include: · The latest in category management techniques · 5HGHȴQLQJVNLOOVHWVIRUWKHQH[WJHQHUDWLRQ · Innovating with key suppliers to achieve true win-win partnerships · 8VLQJSURFXUHPHQWWRLQȵXHQFHWRSOLQHJURZWKDQGJHQHUDWHUHYHQXH · Repositioning procurement to operate in an interconnected world We hope you’ll join us in Phoenix this September to experience how shared insight and innovation can truly transform your company’s procurement organization.

  • Synergy Created by Coordinating Sourcing in Related Diversified Firms a Study of the Norwegian Utility Industry
    Master thesis Synergy created by coordinating sourcing in related diversified firms A study of the Norwegian utility industry Author: Linda Rønneberg Tutor: Roger Stokkedal Examiner: Helena Forslund Semester: Spring 2012 Course code: 4FE06E Summary Business process and Supply Chain Management, Degree Project (master), 15 higher education credits, course 4FE06E Author: Linda Rønneberg Tutor: Roger Stokkedal Examiner: Helena Forslund Title: Synergy created by coordinating sourcing in related diversified firms. A study in the Norwegian utility industry Background: The importance of sourcing activities is high in many companies and awareness of its impact on competitiveness has been increasing. Sourcing affects both the cost structure and the features of the final product. One way of increasing the performance of sourcing is to join forces and work together in order to create synergy. Synergy is the increased value by working together rather than apart. Many companies have started corporate and multinational initiatives in order to coordinate sourcing across its related diversified business units. One way of doing this is for several business units to share a common sourcing department or coordinate the sourcing processes, accumulating the sourcing volume in order to gain economies of scale. However, in order to create such synergies, some coordination mechanisms must be in place. In this thesis, the coordination by organizational structure, management control system and by process, systems and tools are investigated. The synergies that can

  • Uncovering the Drive Towards Responsible Sourcing by the Consumer Packaged Goods Industry 2
    Uncovering the Drive Towards Responsible Sourcing by the Consumer Packaged Goods Industry KRUGER PRODUCTS CONSUMER ROUND TABLE WHITE PAPER JUNE 26, 2013 Uncovering the Drive Towards Responsible Sourcing by the Consumer Packaged Goods Industry 2 INTRODUCTION From forestry, fish and palm oil to sugar, cocoa and tea, and so much more, responsible sourcing should be a significant consideration for every company. It is a broad and far-reaching topic that can have a variety of meanings to companies, individuals and organizations. Unlike the term sustainability, which has a commonly accepted definition – development which meets the needs of current generations without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs – which was developed by the United Nations, the term responsible sourcing does not have such an agreed upon definition. Despite this, a multitude of companies around the world have formulated their own definitions and are integrating responsible sourcing into their operations. From major international companies like Unilever and Marks & Spencer, mid-size companies, like Whole Foods Markets, and small, local companies like Modrobes, responsible sourcing is quickly becoming an important part of doing business, not only as it pertains to environmental and social sustainability, but from a long-term economic standpoint, too. Companies operate with a primary purpose: profitability. No matter the industry, size or geography, all companies must earn a net profit to sustain themselves. Even the most environmentally-conscious companies, like Interface – a company made famous by its dedication to sustainability and unwavering commitment to eliminate the negative impact it has on the environment – understand the importance of financial performance.
