A client that historically focused on supporting top line projects for growth and innovation recently increased bottom line savings goals and needed more fire power. The client engaged a flexible partner and implemented a hybrid operating model to support sourcing and category management. The client identified “cultural fit” as one of the key project risks and worked with Denali to demonstrate that the “chemistry” was positive prior to implementation. Denali’s dedicated team works at Client HQ, providing sourcing, analytics, and project support across Direct and Indirect categories. The integrated team exceeded the FY17 savings targets and developed a healthy pipeline for FY18 – on track to exceed goals for FY18.
About the Future of Sourcing Awards
The 2018 inaugural Future of Sourcing Awards program recognized organizations that showed innovation, leadership and transformation in categories critical to the sourcing industry. The Awards brought together some of the brightest minds, the best insights and the most relevant topics and created a truly remarkable experience. In eight categories our esteemed judges selected three finalists from many innovations in sourcing, outsourcing, third party management, supplier performance, digitization, governance/compliance, talent management, and sustainability.
Each nominee was invited to discuss their innovations in a podcast for The Sourcing Industry Landscape as well as a Ted-style Talk at the SIG 2018 Fall Global Summit. Finally, each nominee was asked to provide a handout for their Talk.
