Geopolitical tensions, economic volatility, rapid technological change, and unstable supplier structures characterize the day-to-day reality of procurement.

It is crucial to identify risks early, keep a close eye on critical suppliers, and take targeted countermeasures.

In this webinar, you'll learn:

  • What risks are currently relevant in procurement and what you need to watch out for  
  • How to Identify and Prioritize Critical Suppliers

Uncertain markets and unstable supply chains are increasing the pressure on procurement. Risks often show early warning signs—the key is to recognize these signals in day-to-day operations and interpret them correctly. At the same time, there is often a lack of focus on the truly critical suppliers. In this webinar, you’ll learn how to identify risks early on, assess them correctly, and focus your attention specifically on the key suppliers. This will help you set clear priorities and remain capable of taking action even in uncertain times.
