To compete in a fast-paced, global business environment, an agile approach to business services delivery needs to be taken. However, maintaining effective and efficient procurement operating models while reducing the overall operational cost base can be challenging. But how do you decide which strategic procurement or digital transformation program will suit your organisation?

Whether it’s through using third-party providers, a shared services centre or a procurement technology solution, KPMG can help your business move from single-function, transactional service delivery towards a more streamlined approach.
