Again due to the same economic conditions, company officials are finding that putting more pressure on their procurement departments’ performance might be easier than increasing revenues. They understand that a $1.00 saved goes right to the bottom line. But if you increase your price by $1.00, not only is that usually an unpopular move within your industry, after expenses you might only realize $ .28 to $ .33 of that dollar. So now your procurement department has become a focal point and strategically more important, but along with that comes higher YOY performance expectations. mksahu@corbus.com www.corbus.com Adding comments & value to Peter, due to the overall global economic situation most companies are searching for ways to increase their bottom line performance by not only increasing revenues but also by decreasing the cost of doing business.
