Less than a generation ago, the procurement function’s leader was typically a director who reported to a vice president who reported to a member of the executive team. Today, supply management has a seat in the executive suite and sees its responsibility and accountability constantly increasing.
To explore the future of supply management, the Center for Advanced Procurement and Supply (CAPS) Research, the Institute for Supply Management (ISM) and A.T. Kearney first collaborated on research nearly a decade ago-1998’s The Future of Purchasing and Supply: A Five- and Ten-Year Forecast.
To test and enhance our understanding of these changes and the effect they will have, A.T. Kearney has once again joined forces with CAPS Research and ISM to update and expand our research into future trends for supply management.
