Indirect procurement outsourcing: Why, how and when

Companies have realized that the procurement initiatives of the '90s and early 2000s did not deliver the level of cost competitiveness promised, so they have begun to look at outsourcing to deliver on those promises. This white paper by UPS Supply Chain Solutions describes in detail indirect procurement outsourcing, the complete or partial transfer of the business processes, infrastructure and resources associated with purchasing materials. UPS discusses the disadvantages of e-procurement, the market for procurement outsourcing and the keys to successful implementation of indirect procurement outsourcing.
