Join Purchasing Magazine's Editor-in-Chief Paul Teague  on September 23, 2009 from 2-3 pm US-EDT for an interactive WEBCAST and panel discussion focusing on the five most important procurement strategies for 2010. The discussion will focus on:

• Intelligence: How top-performing procurement groups analyze, leverage-and act on-vast quantities of internal, market, and supplier information.
• Automation: State-of-the-art tools environments for procurement-what they deliver in terms of savings and compliance-and why they're entirely different from what anyone expected.
• Performance: The new procurement-success metrics.
• Risk: How the best procurement groups create comprehensive strategies for managing the big supply risks that accompany such tactics as supply-base optimization, low-cost country sourcing, and outsourcing.
• Collaboration: The crucial necessity of expanding procurement's focus far beyond its four walls; the techniques and tools to ensure success.

This WEBCAST will feature LIVE interaction between audience and panelists, so invite your colleagues and come prepared with questions and comments of your own!
