Conference Theme
The IPSERA 2021 conference theme is procurement innovation. Digital transformation is opening new opportunities for the management of purchasing and supply chains, making “big data” available and offering analytical tools to manage them, but also allowing networking and sharing innovative ideas. This enables both disruption of existing practices and technologies, as well as new ways to tackle sustainability challenges, e.g., through better transparency and control of supply chain risk. All of these developments offer gateways to improved efficiencies in procurement.
