This month’s cover story features Roche leaders, Marielle Beyer and Patrick Foelck, who share their insight on procurement transformation that goes beyond traditional tactical procurement and creates real value for the business.
Over the next few years, procurement leaders will need to execute another transformation, taking their functions beyond sourcing, negotiations, and category management. The aim? To make procurement an embodiment and an enabler of the broader organisation’s strategic ambitions relating to everything from contributing to core business objectives and delivering shareholder value to sustainability.
At least, that’s the future that Beyer and Foelck believe is coming. And it’s the one they are working towards today.
