Expect the unexpected from a panel of experienced CPOs as they discuss what it takes to meet and exceed the expectations of the business, and to engage suppliers to solve real problems and add real business value. Danny Ertel of Vantage Partners will moderate the discussion, teeing up findings from Vantage’s latest SRM study (based on over 750 responses) and challenging our panelists for insights from their own experience.
Among the topics we’ll cover include:
- How do we knit together our SRM programs, our efforts to get closer to the business, and our category strategies, to produce coherent approaches to how we negotiate and manage relationships?
- How do we influence the expectations of shareholders about the roles we can play and the kinds of problems our best suppliers can help solve?
- How we measure value, above and beyond discounts and year-on-year savings?
