Experts tell how to Invest in technology

By Purchasing Staff -- Purchasing, 4/16/2008 8:52:00 AM

Making smart investment decisions while acquiring sourcing and procurement technologies is never easy. Over-invest in complex and expensive technology and the procurement organization may be challenged with roll-out and sparse adoption; under-invest and risk not being able to sustain real savings rates over the longer term.

On April 23, 2008 at 2 pm US-EDT (11 am US-PDT), Purchasing will host a WEBCAST titled, Investing in Procurement Technologies? Get it Right the First time. The webcast will feature the following presentations and also live Q&A with the presenters:

• Kees-Jan Kooymans, Procurement Controller, Provimi, a world leader in animal nutrition solutions, on how the company's corporate procurement group investigated and invested smartly in procurement technology to support a major corporate transformation from highly fragmented to centralized procurement.

• Mickey North Rizza, Research Director, AMR Research on AMR's recommendations for organizations planning procurement technology investments now.

• Sam Gadodia, Executive VP and CFO, Global eProcure with a Chief Financial Officer's perspective on how to create a procurement technology roadmap that will win support (and funding) from a company’s CEO/CFO.
