Description of content and objectives

In the current climate of high uncertainty, the need to review and potentially simplify supply chains that significantly impact core business is clear. While long-standing suppliers may sometimes suffice to guarantee the quantities and lead times required by the business, companies must at other times address the need to turn to new suppliers, for instance due to geographical considerations.

Starting from the definition of the strategic role of the Purchasing Function in ensuring business continuity and achieving specific objectives, it is essential to adopt a system for selecting and evaluating suppliers to increase the effectiveness and reliability of one's supply sources.

The session will address the topic through three key points:

  • What is Purchasing Marketing
  • New approaches, skills, and tools with a focus on the changes brought about by the lockdown
  • Consequences of reshoring policies on Purchasing Marketing

This meeting is held in collaboration with ADACI - the Italian Association for Purchasing and Supply Management.

Following the speakers' presentations, there will be an opportunity to join the discussion panel.
