This month, SIG announces the finalists for the Future of Sourcing Awards, you’ve got one more shot to earn a sourcing, supply chain or risk management certification in 2019, and SIG CEO and President Dawn Tiura needs your help with a tail spend question.
Awards finalists will present on the details of their innovative projects during Ted Talk-style breakout sessions during the SIG Fall Global Executive Summit in Carlsbad, California, which runs from October 14 to 16, 2019. The winner in each category will be announced during an awards ceremony on Wednesday, October 16.

If you’re already planning to attend the Global Executive Summit, the Awards dinner is included with your ticket.
Enrollment is open for SIG University classes beginning on September 30. This is your last chance to earn a certification in sourcing, supplier management or third party risk in 2019.

Dawn Tiura had a great panel discussion at #CoupaInspire that she wants to continue in a blog post, but needs your help. An interesting question came from the audience and the conversation turned to third-party risk management and tail spend – that we don’t know the amount of risk that could be sitting in the tail because we don’t address it.
Here's how you can help Dawn: If you could ask your tail spend THREE questions, what would you ask it? Leave your questions in the comments of Dawn’s LinkedIn post and she’ll address these questions in an upcoming blog post.
