Direct Spend Management: New Approaches and Procurement Solutions

Procurement has come a long way — from a back-office, transactional function to a strategic partner powering a stronger, more successful business. But much of the dramatic change has come about within indirect procurement. Direct spend management is much more complex; its intricacies lead to persistent inefficiencies and missed opportunities to make the business more competitive and create real value.

In this webinar presented by GEP and Everest Group, our presenters explore the factors contributing to suboptimal direct spend management, and what could actually be done to address them. It's a starting point for enterprises to begin changing their approach to direct spend — ultimately realizing the untapped potential in direct procurement by leveraging external expertise and adopting the latest technology.
