How does your procurement function monitor and gauge market sentiment?

If the recent economic panic of the past few days has taught us anything, it's that no category, company, or country is immune from the impact of a faltering market across the other side of the globe. With that in mind, we're seeking to understand how effectively procurement and supplier management functions are monitoring market sentiment using the knowledge and insight from their supplier base, and if fluctuations in the supply market could be collated and used as a tool by both procurement and the wider business to spot potential risks in the market.
