Procurement Insights
♻️ Five tips for greener supply chains - Climate change might be the defining global issue for the next decade, but in many countries, public procurement is still focused on sourcing low carbon products rather than greening wider supply chains and buying practices.
💰 How to Negotiate a 15% Higher Salary in Procurement - Asking for a higher salary isn’t a comfortable experience for many of us… but the odds may be in your favor! We spoke to Imelda Walsh from The Source to help us understand why.
📣 Companies can not succeed if procurement does not succeed - 4% of the 886 companies evaluated scored a 4 or 5 (the top scores) in SRM and 5% earned the top scores in supply market intelligence. Only 8 companies – less than 1% – scored a 4 or 5 in BOTH SRM and SMI. It comes as no surprise that these are some of the top companies in the world: Ford, Exxon Mobil, Proctor & Gamble, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, and AT&T.
🟢 7 strategies for buyers in a world of shortages - Sectors from automotive to food service are struggling with crippling shortages of supplies due to a perfect storm of factors.
⚙️ India to recover rare earth metals from scrapped cars - The government said that the National Automobile Scrappage Policy was part of its “waste-to-wealth mission” and would contribute to the circular economy, reduce pollution and protect the environment.
🧾 Procurement disputes with the Indian Government - India’s public procurement framework does not contain an independent grievance redressal mechanism with respect to tender reviews. Instead, tender disputes are generally adjudicated through arbitration or by civil courts with jurisdiction to entertain the dispute.
