Jennifer Engel, one of Source One's Senior Procurement Analysts will attend and address the American Supply Association's Fall Dinner on Monday, November 13th.  This annual event has become a valued tradition for a reason.  Bringing together supply chain professionals from across the Midwest, it always features impassioned discussion and expert insights from industry leaders.

Engel has years of experience helping best-in-class organizations produce cost savings in their MRO and Facilities purchasing.  As a result, she possesses considerable insight into the motivations and considerations behind procurement decisions.  She'll call upon her history of successful initiatives to discuss recent developments in the ever-evolving field of e-Commerce.  In particular, she'll address how online transactions have affected supplier relationships and the potential threats posed by industry giants like Amazon.

Amazon Business, introduced in 2015, has quickly established itself as a rival to more traditional industrial distributors.  Though Amazon offers convenience in the form of its Prime delivery services, they have yet to develop a customer service apparatus to match that of their more established competitors.  Engel will take special care to discuss the value-adds that can help veteran firms not only stay competitive, but continue to outperform these emerging challengers.

Check out Source One's recent infographic 'Can Amazon Business Really Compete with MRO, IT, and Office Product Suppliers' for more information on how Amazon Business compares to similar services.
