The need for CEO mandates in procurement “ I always say : you would never review a contract from a legal perspective without sending it to your legal department , so why wouldn ’ t the same apply to procurement for the commercial terms ?” says Ascolani .
Procurement is a hard function to integrate throughout an organisation without having topdown mandates . TU Procure , the company ' s internally rebranded global procurement team acts as a centre of excellence for organisations , providing them with a control point to make sure that their stakeholders are getting the best market rates , and the most up to date product and service offerings . “ We drive that discussion when it comes to supplier management and assessment . As companies grow , the economic benefits and the risk management benefits of a mature procurement organisation become increasingly vital .”
