How to get ROI on digital procurement transformation
In this episode, Oliver underscores the importance of communication and managing expectations during procurement technology implementation. He emphasises clear initial communication about the necessity for automation to improve supply performance, transparency, and visibility, aiding smoother stakeholder onboarding. Oliver advocates for a phased, wave-based approach, promoting agility and continuous improvement through feedback. He highlights the need for diverse training formats like quick reference guides, drop-in sessions, and interactive workshops to boost user adoption.
