The global recession has created a new alignment between the CFO and CPO. With goals and objectives now more closely aligned than ever before, the CFO’s view of Procurement has significantly improved over the last two years.
In fact, compared to 2007, a CFO in 2009 was 71 percent more likely to view the CPO as having a “very positive” impact on an organization’s competitiveness.
How and why has the CFO’s view of the CPO and the procurement function changed? And what should organizations do in order to strategically align the two functions to produce a best-in-class organization?
