			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Supply Chain Management—</strong> Procurement Services Gaining competitive advantage through effective enterprise spend management</p>
<p><strong>New trends. New solutions.</strong></p>
<p>Existing economic conditions and fierce competition are forcing organizations to seek new ways to<br />
reduce costs and enhance profitability and cash flow. Businesses are feeling the pressure to improve<br />
procurement effectiveness, and a focus on strategic sourcing and hosting offerings is becoming<br />
a popular first step. <strong>E-procurement point</strong> solutions are fading, yet companies still want to protect<br />
procurement investments. To effectively analyze and manage total procurement spend, companies<br />
need basic as well as comprehensive information, and visibility into purchasing spend and behaviors.<br />
Enterprises need operational and supplier performance measurements to know how they are doing,<br />
yet many lack expertise in strategic sourcing and the ability to effectively manage supplier relationships.</p>
<p>An on demand supply chain for a realtime world</p>
<p>The role of the <strong>supply chain</strong> is changing as it moves from a static, cost-centric model to an evolving, integrated model. Organizations arefocusing on the supply chain to help transform their businesses by:</p>
<ul>
<li> Altering the way they think, organize and execute </li>
<li> Looking at business processes horizontally rather than vertically</li>
<li> Integrating processes within and beyond the enterprise</li>
</ul>
