Procurement is evolving. 

Once serving as a tactical function with the mission of strictly reducing costs, Procurement departments are going beyond traditional three bid-and-buy processes to achieve more strategic goals. Best-in-class organizations now leverage procurement groups for making long term investments in critical business units such as Marketing and IT - creating an imperative for procurement professionals to align stakeholders with overarching corporate goals, manage supplier relationships, and constantly seek out innovation in various forms. 

Procurement is more than just simply finding the right price for a product and service. As such, this business unit must pursue additional measures towards reaching success, including proper category Planning, supplier Partnerships, monitoring supplier Performance, and improving Processes.
