Procurement is extremely hard and I need your help. It's been three months into building Spendility and I am down to this question "Why is procurement so different from other core functions like sales, HR, or finance?" The answer of course lies in its inherently heterogeneous nature. Unlike the relative standardization of these other functions, procurement is a chameleon, changing colors with every industry, organization, and even individual purchase. Think of it this way: In sales, you can often develop a one-size-fits-all playbook for lead generation and conversion. In HR, standardized recruitment processes and compensation structures are common. Finance operates under established accounting principles and reporting frameworks. But, procurement is nothing short of a Kaleidoscope of Challenges for Solution Providers. This heterogeneity throws down a gauntlet for solution providers: 🎯 No "silver bullet": A solution that shines in manufacturing might flop in healthcare. 🌏 Understanding the nuances: Deep industry knowledge and the ability to navigate complex organizational dynamics become crucial. 🔀 Customization is king(unfortunately): Rigid, off-the-shelf solutions rarely hit the mark. Flexibility and adaptability are essential. 🤝 Building trust: Earning the trust of procurement professionals, trained for their skepticism, requires a different approach. I need your help in understanding: 1) How can solution providers, specially "newbies" like us Spendility navigate this procurement paradox? 2) How have incumbent players have won(or winning) this battle? 3) What can we learn from other functions? The heterogeneous nature of procurement may pose challenges, but it also presents a unique opportunity. Solving for hard problems does unlock immense value. But how? #procurementexcellence #procurementleaders

📍Ever feel navigating procurement is like trying to fit square jars into round holes? Even within the same industry procurement can look totally different. 📍Adding organisational maturity and various Procure-tech tools makes it even more complex. 📍Unlike HR or accounting, procurement varies greatly org to org ❓Do you find this to be true? 📍 Over the past two weeks, I’ve spoken with many managers. Each confirmed this - changing companies means changing procurement processes, technologies, approach, maturity and internal client attitudes. 📍 As a consultant, I’ve seen it all. From just sending orders to having organised, strategic procurement with top talent and tech. Do You see the same differences? Challenges, just to name a few: Adapting to new processes - each company has its own procurement methods. Training requirements - new tools and systems require specific training. Aligning with internal clients - different attitudes and expectations. Managing change - shifting from operational to strategic roles. Maintaining consistency - ensuring process efficiency across different environments. Integrating Procure-tech - adopting and optimising new technologies in procurement. Do You agree? #procurement #procuretech
