| Discover the essential elements of the 2025 business strategy that determine procurement
We partnered with KRC Research to interview 3,500 organizational and procurement executives to determine the trends shaping procurement in 2025. Our research revealed the following:
- Strategic innovations are running into historical obstacles : while many executives report that procurement is evolving at an accelerated pace, there are old obstacles — such as organizational complexities, budgets and supplier relationships — that still stand in the way of progress.
- Optimizations inspired by improved insights : Respondents almost unanimously agreed that there is room for optimization in procurement, with many pointing to the need for more robust data, information, and analysis.
- Supplier relationships are crucial : respondents cited their suppliers’ inability to support digital procurement and their lack of clear communication and support as two of the biggest problems for current procurement operations.
- Impact purchasing is gaining importance : responsible purchasing remains a priority, with 80% of decision-makers stating that their organizations have mandates or goals to work with certified suppliers.
