We are engaged in transforming our indirect sourcing team to be a top tier organization. One question that has come up is what other companies are doing to support category management and support beyond staffing up.
For example, how are they leveraging:
Group purchasing organizations and consortiums
Procurement Outsourcing (the entire sourcing cycle, but especially S2C)
Consultant support for specific sourcing/procurement projects
Categories are open but could include:
Market intelligence
Office Supplies
Parcel Ship
Operating Supplies
Energy
Etc.
We are seeking to understand:
Models
Pros/cons of each
Best practices, such as what categories and tools that help with the determination process
What the market looks like (providers)
