Top 10 Procurement websites in 2022

With procurement developing at breakneck speeds it can be difficult to know where to go to get your latest procurement news. Here's our top 10 list…

There's no end to procurement news and information sources. It can be difficult and time-consuming to sift through the debris of worn-out data to find the nuggets of insight that procurement and supply chain professionals need, and time, is a central matter in this industry.

So, to save you some, we have collated the top 10 procurement websites out there, and ranked them according to utility. We begin with number 10... 

#10 Art of Procurement

The Art of Procurement website is full of interesting materials such as white papers, blogs and podcasts to help procurement professionals understand the landscape and stay up to date with the latest procurement topics and developments. It was put together by procurement professionals to help change-oriented procurement leaders accelerate transformation through inspirational content, thematic digital events, a learning community, and expert-led advisory services.  

#9 CPO Rising

Self-described as 'the site for chief procurement officers and leaders in procurement', CPO Rising provides engaging articles and information that entertains while edifying procurement readers. It's also the largest website focused on procurement and supply management, and was established by the well-known-to-proc-circles analyst, Andrew Bartolini, who also happens to be the founder & chief research officer at Ardent Partners.

#8 Supply Chain Dive


The 'Dive' aspect of SupplyChainDive is so named because of its level of analysis. This site helps procurement professionals to simplify complex and perhaps increasingly complicating subjects. SupplyChainDive is a strong source for daily procurement and supply chain news content. They offer a daily email newsletter and have their own app for ease-of-access to procurement news and updates, and also offer opinion pieces to help untangle sometimes seemingly-impenetrable aspects of procurement. Bookmark this one.

#7 Procurement Leaders

The name's in the tin with this one. Procurement Leaders is known as the world’s most valued procurement network, and a community for CPOs and their leadership teams.

It has the power to elevate innovation, risk mitigation, sustainability, disruption, teams and transformation, and Procurement Leaders prides itself on providing the necessary compass to empower executives to be effective in their field. 

#6 Procurious

Procurious is a procurement social network, and the world's largest procurement networking and supply chain community of 41,000+ members. The network is split into several niche groups to meet your procurement needs, and the site also offers featured posts from both procurement leaders and members. It also acts as a news site that curates supply chain news from around the web. Procurious has held thousands of events, provided critical news and interesting thought leadership, but most importantly has given everyone in the industry the opportunity to 'get involved and get ahead'. Procurious is the democratic face of the procurement world. 

#5 Spend Matters

Spend Matters offers free daily articles for procurement and supply chain professionals. They also have a PRO service, which is a paid member program that delivers procurement and supply chain professionals an information advantage by providing original thought, insightful analyses, and unbiased opinion that doesn’t hedge, obfuscate, or pander. Spend Matters PRO members have access to their new Premium Research library which includes downloadable versions of Spend Matters PRO content (amongst other exclusive goodies). The difference between the free and premium service is that Spend Matters PRO delivers a level of depth, insight and analysis that goes far beyond what is available in the public domain or from other research and analyst services. It also provides concrete recommendations and takeaways to help procurement professionals, consultants and technology providers make both strategic and tactical decisions.
