Why Software Procurement is Different

Software has become an integral part of modern businesses, yet its procurement presents unique challenges. In this video, we’ll explore the complexities of software procurement and why it differs from traditional procurement strategies.

  • Ubiquity of Software: Software is everywhere, used for various purposes and by diverse stakeholders. This makes it difficult to develop a unified procurement strategy.

Procurement: More Than Just Saving Money

I’m back after a six-month hiatus to dive deep into the core functions of procurement. It’s been a while, but the questions keep coming in: “What does procurement actually do?” and “Is it a good career path?”

In this video, I’ll discuss the key responsibilities of a procurement professional, explore common misconceptions, and share my insights on why I love this field.
