¿De qué se trata?
Chief procurement officers (CPOs) face confounding challenges and must bring order to chaos.
Recommendation
Today’s chief procurement officers (CPOs) must deal with just-in-time supply chains, ever-evolving tariffs, new sourcing regulations, currency fluctuations, outsourcing, sudden commodities scarcities, synthetic insurance hedges, and much more. McKinsey procurement professionals Peter Spiller, Nicolas Reinecke, Drew Ungerman and Henrique Teixeira discuss the major challenges that CPOs and their organizations face, and detail the best practices to deal with them. In addition to their own experience, the authors base their recommendations on 2,000 interview hours with CPOs and top procurement executives, upward of 1,500 global procurement studies and the close examination of more than 700 procurement organizations. Despite the container loads of insider jargon, getAbstract recommends this exceptional best-practices procurement guide to CEOs, COOs and, of course, CPOs and to all the members of their departments.
