Leading Consulting Firm Unveils the Future of Procurement at Upcoming Industry Conferences and Events

    WILLOW GROVE, PA, September 09, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The firm is no stranger to demonstrating their strategic sourcing expertise and insights at industry events and tradeshows as sponsors and guest speakers. This fall will be no exception, with engagements at events such as Q1 Productions' Pharmaceutical Procurement and Strategic Sourcing Conference, Worldwide Business Research's ProcureCon Pharma 2015, UnimarketNow 2015, and the United States-Mexico Chamber of Commerce. Procurement consultants and strategic sourcing experts from Source One will be wearing a variety of hats at these events, engaging other industry leaders and procurement professionals as featured speakers, round table leaders, panel moderators, and panel members.

What does the future of procurement look like? Source One's consultants will be leveraging their experience shaping the future of procurement for top companies to speak about the future of the procurement profession and the supply management industry. Source One will discuss the value offered by implementing cutting-edge programs including category management, Supplier Relationship Management and will discuss how to leverage strategic Business Process Outsourcing in a way that does not displace jobs. Two of these events are being held this year in Philadelphia, the procurement services providers' hometown; and two events are taking place in Source One's second office in Chicago.

"Our goal with clients is to help companies achieve their desired future state for their spend management functions, optimizing both their processes and budgets. For some this means designing and implementing a customized vendor management program or for others, providing subject matter experts to supplement their own internal strategic sourcing resources. Regardless of the type of project we're working on, our clients know that they'll benefit from our knowledge and lessons learned from our decades of cross-category, cross-industry experience. We look forward to providing that insight whether we're guiding our client's internal teams through the strategic sourcing process, addressing procurement professionals as speakers at conferences, or guest speaking at colleges and universities." comments Joe Payne, Source One's VP of Professional Services.

This fall, the consulting firm also looks forward to engaging potential candidates at Temple University's Fox School of Business Job Fair and educating students from Immaculata University on sustainability in the supply chain.
