Episode 55: A New Era for Procurement and Sourcing
Guest: Bryan Baum/Anaplan
Procurement and Sourcing are critical functions, especially at companies whose prosperity depends on maintaining well-oiled supply chains. A job that requires diligence and attention to detail under normal circumstances, suddenly calls for quick decisions and agility, when times become volatile.
This week we have a fascinating conversation with Bryan Baum, an experienced Procurement and Sourcing manager, who now leads the Procurement, Sourcing and Supply Chain Solutions group at Anaplan, a vendor of connected planning software platforms.
Among other things we learn how technology can help to close the gap between diligent attention to detail, and the need for speed and agility, by guaranteeing ready availability of trustworthy data in the timeframe needed to support decision-making.
