Canon Business Process Services Offers White Paper from The Hackett Group on the State of Procurement Digital Transformation

NEW YORK, April 3, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Canon Business Process Services (Canon) today made available a white paper from The Hackett Group highlighting how procurement teams have the potential to play a more strategic role in their organizations. To realize this opportunity, however, they must digitally transform their processes. Yet according to the report, only 63 percent have even developed a plan for doing do.

The white paper, "State of Procurement Digital Transformation: Value Drivers and Expectations," is offered by Canon and written by The Hackett Group. The paper features important research relevant for procurement professionals who are ready to embrace new technologies and ways of working. Selecting the right mix of initiatives to improve service, enhance efficiency and contain cost is a challenge. Noting that procurement teams often have to work with limited budget and resources, the paper outlines suggested strategies for initiating and successfully completing a digital transformation journey.

As one example, the report emphasizes the importance of targeting specific digital transformation objectives and goals. As part of the enterprise digital transformation effort, procurement should map out where the best use cases exist for its own digital transformation. Many of these can be found among the strategic and tactical value drivers discussed in the report.
