What are the primary drivers in outsourced procurement growth?
Some of the main drivers behind the reported growth of procurement outsourcing services is the increasing complexity nature of global supply chains. The networks and tiers of supply have become more intricate, involving multiple suppliers, locations and differing regulatory requirements. It can prove difficult for procurement operations to manage these complexities in-house and can be both challenging and resource-intensive. By outsourcing procurement, organisations can use the expertise and networks of specialised service providers to streamline their operations.
The research also looks positively on the impact on the sector as businesses emerge from recession, saying the market is likely to rebound, driven by the need for operational efficiency, scalability, and strategic procurement expertise.
