Overview Research has shown that procurement performance leaders – companies with tightly managed, innovative, relationship-focused procurement practices – outperform other companies in financial terms (total shareholder return, return on equity, return on assets, cash flow return on investment) and productivity terms (sales per employee, income per employee, real growth in sales). This paper provides information that procurement performance leaders excel in most or all of six key areas: leadership, strategy, and governance, organizational structure, cross enterprise integration, procurement resource management and development, stakeholder relationship management, and, application of procurement metrics.
