Big Ideas Summit 2016: Big Idea #27 – Mastering Digital Information

The wealth of digital information available to procurement is a game changer. But only if it can make sense of it in the first place.

At the Big Ideas Summit 2016, we challenged our thought leaders to share their Big Ideas for the future of procurement.

From ideas that have the potential to change the very nature of the procurement profession, to ones that got the assembled minds thinking about the profession’s impact outside of the organisation, the response we received was amazing.

Digital Innovation & Agility

There are three major themes confronting procurement leaders and organisations – digitalisation, innovation and agility. The management of this wealth of digital information will be key in securing procurement’s future.

Giles Breault, Principal and co-Founder at The Beyond Group, discusses why procurement needs to both be more agile in this modern environment. The profession will also need make sense of big data in order to understand how it will change the management of supply chain.

Catch up with all the delegates’ Big Ideas from the 2016 Summit at the Procurious Learning Hub.
