In today’s world, most organizations are constantly looking at ways to maximize their sourcing efficiencies and reduce procurement costs –not just by lowering purchase costs, but also considering overall business requirements, elements of risk and really evaluating Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). This approach is really what makes strategic sourcing very comprehensive and makes it more effective than the traditional attempt to just push down purchase costs.
