Strategic Sourcing
Strategic Sourcing in a fast-paced, networked world
In a world where innovation and time-to-market are more important and faster then ever, businesses need to reconsider which activities to keep in-house, which to outsource and which to co-deliver with suppliers. New service models must be leveraged to maximize value.
Many factors go into this evaluation ranging from differentiation to availability of capabilities and from criticality to speed. The sourcing model must be translated into a working target operating model and requirements for collaboration must be defined and validated.

'Cris Buningh and Joost van Boeschoten helped us to define and implement a framework to come to comprehensive decisions on Sourcing and Supplier Selection.
The framework helps us tremendously to make explicit choices on the topics.
But much more important than giving us a framework, is their hands-on approach that made sure that the framework was adopted and improved, by actually applying it together with the KPN team'
