scheduleWednesday 7 February | 12-1pm GMT

What are the biggest challenges for indirect procurement that lie ahead? And how can you prepare?

Now in its seventh year, The 2024 Indirect Procurement Report – ‘Maintaining Focus’, focuses on supplies for maintenance, repair and operations. Produced by RS, in partnership with CIPS, this year’s survey drew a record number of UK responses – evidence of how engaged and active procurement professionals are in key business issues.   In this webinar, The CIPS Download Editor, James Moore, will discuss the report’s highlights with Liam Kettlewell, Senior Director, Product & Supplier Management, RS UK & Ireland.

We will explore key hurdles procurement professionals are facing today, from talent shortages to asset performance and inflation. Topics will include business pressures, environmental, social and governance (ESG), category management and technology.   By joining this session, you will hear the latest insights on indirect procurement and get the chance to participate in a live Q&A.

On the agenda
· The importance of ESG and the challenges of implementing a successful strategy
· Supplier strategies for managing the indirect category
· Working more efficiently with technology

 This will be a thought-provoking, interactive session that blends expert insights with practical, actionable solutions. Delegates will also get an opportunity to get a copy of the Maintaining Focus, 2024 Indirect Procurement Report.
