Solution to Problem (S2P)
It may not always be the right approach to hire a strategic sourcing category expert or procurement professional for every single aspect of your corporate spend. The return on investment for hiring and retaining a capable procurement professional also can have a diminishing return once you move past your top supplier contracts or top spend categories.
Victor Manan Nyambala
“Organisational Procurement is a tight balancing act between “cost and quality” on one side and “time and compliance” on the other side, yet a seasoned procurement specialist keeps it evenly balanced.”
“Classical”consultants from the big firms usually come very expensive and often require minimum guarantees of work that far exceed what hiring an extra procurement person or two would cost anyhow. And in some cases, the procurement support they provide is too generic and doesn’t provide the depth of category or sourcing expertise that you are looking for.
