Expert Reflections on Procurement Transformation Published in New eBook

The Procurement optimization team at Source One release new eBook capturing Procurement
Transformation insights from a number of Supply Management leaders.

Willow Grove, PA, July 17, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Leading spend management consultancy Source One, a
Corcentric company, has released a comprehensive new eBook on the topic of Procurement
Transformation. Titled Procurement Transformation: Industry Perspectives, the publication presents an
extensive collection of reflections, insights, and procurement best practices from nearly a dozen Supply
Chain thought leaders exploring the concept of optimizing the Procurement function.

Over the last several weeks, Source One has stoked the discussion surrounding Procurement
Transformation with a series of whitepapers. Approaching the subject from a number of angles, the series
has helped both define and demystify Procurement Transformation. These installments - focused on
topics including Supply Management's talent gap, effective approaches to new Procurement technologies,
and the function's brand identity - are now available in a single, comprehensive volume.

“As a five-part series, Procurement Transformation: Industry Perspectives has proven exceptionally
popular and successful,” says Associate Director and Procurement Transformation Practice Lead Jennifer
Ulrich. “We've enjoyed the opportunity to look at Procurement Transformation through numerous lenses
and add new wrinkles to an ongoing conversation. Hopefully, some of our readers feel better equipped to
initiate transformative projects within their own procurement organizations and ultimately develop a
world-class function.”

In addition to Ulrich's thoughts on measuring Procurement's performance, Procurement Transformation:


Industry Perspectives includes contributions from the following Supply Chain authorities: Jim Baehr
(Group Lead, Sourcing Strategies Group), Kelly Barner (Managing Editor, Buyer's Meeting Point), Diego
De la Garza (Director, Source One), Phil Ideson (Managing Director, Palambridge), Dr. Michael
Lamoureux (Editor-in-Chief, Sourcing Innovation), Naseem Malik (Manager Partner, MRA Global
Sourcing), Kristian O'Meara (SVP of Value Engineering, JAGGAER), Joe Payne (VP of Professional
Services, Source One), and Tom Rogers (CEO, Vendor Centric).

While the series and eBook are both extensive and highly-detailed, Source One's experts are quick to
point out that the conversation surrounding Procurement Transformation is far from over.

“Exhaustive as Procurement Transformation: Industry Perspectives is, it's far from the last word on any of
the subjects we've covered,” says Payne. "As we've seen over our decades as a sourcing services provider,
the role of Procurement has evolved. So, too, has our definition of best-in-class Procurement and the
methodologies companies employ to achieve that status. The eBook is representative of our continued
commitment to moving Procurement forward and helping companies realize the full potential of the
Procurement teams."
