They are also driving innovation and saving more money than their competitors.

  • The maturity and scope of sourcing programs and an understanding of how these programs fit within broader supply management initiatives
  • The benefits that have been derived from e-sourcing programs and technologies
  • The application and results of specific sourcing strategies
  • The current and planned use of related supply management technologies
