How it runs
For procurement leaders weighing up a technology decision or trying to work out why the last one hasn't delivered.
A handful of people
Usually the procurement leadership team, the head of procurement excellence and whoever runs areas like supplier management.
Online or in person
Nothing needs preparing. I'll ask about spend data, adoption of your current tools and how long everyday processes take, so bring figures if you have them.
Your map the next day
Your initial summary is free. Any further work is optional and scoped separately.
A straight answer
If the session shows work worth doing, I'll say what it would involve. If it doesn't, I'll say that too.
Focusing on sourcing?
The sourcing engine diagnostic runs the same way with your sourcing team. It looks at how much of your spend is sourced by choice and what holds events back.
