  • Procurement Says No Ep 16 Consulting with Consultants
    Jul 8 2024
    Rich and Ed spill the beans on all the tricks of the trade in consulting and interim management. So have a listen if you are buying them, working with them, are one or want to be one!

    We are selling the consulting crown jewels for nothing by answering questions from our listeners around the world - when to use an interim vs a consultant; boutique or Big4; what's the best part and worst part of being a consultant; whether you can bluff your way in consultancy (yes, a bit); measuring a consultant’s “value add”; whether to go for a risk/gain share approach; why the big software houses don’t do their own implementation; how to find an interim; and how to stop consultant firms “landing and expanding”.

    We’ve also got the news - including Procurement and Supply Chain live London, what to buy from "Alibaba Guaranteed" and of course no news at all from CIPS.

    As usual, it’s full of advice that is as cheap as crisps.

  • Procurement Says No Ep15 Return to Listmania
    Jun 17 2024
    For our first anniversary, Rich and Ed Return to Listmania - our favourite topic of random lists for everything in procurement - including a list from someone off the internet - the 9 laws of stuff, plus 7 skills for supplier management, lists of procurement hats, 5 stages of aligned strategy, 11 trends for 2024 and a load of other hopeless predictions - including the demise of the letters C, X and Q.

    And we've got news - including more lists, this time of the top 10 ethical procurement companies (no we don't believe it either) with the BS thermometer of news, Dunkin's new CPO, CIPS's launch of their brand strategy, CAP's top uses for AI, and our podcast being big in Oman as well as now officially recognised as the 19th best global procurement podcast or something.

    We've also got some hard questions to answer from our listeners - what your 90 day plan should look like; how to save money on fleet management; when to e-auction and use Amazon for Business, and how many suppliers is the right number!

    You'll love it - we have a list of 9 reasons why.

  • Procurement Says No Ep14 Deus Ex Machina
    May 15 2024
    Ashley Williams from Mishcon de Reya is back as we delve further into artificial intelligence and machine learning. Will machines save us? Will capitalism save us? What will the world’s despots do with this technology? Is this a turtle on its back? Will Charlie Watts really play drums on a new Whitney album? Will lawyers and procurement people be replaced by bots? Who’s best – big companies or small companies? What is intent prediction and will Ed go to prison for a crime he is yet to commit? Or will we just be regulated to a higher standard (oh, that’s a bit dull)? All of these questions will be answered, sort of.

    And we have news of a very exciting procurement job in construction (no, really); procurement’s role in creating massive plastic pollution; procurement podcast lists (we love a list); and who really cares about the top 10 ERP systems. Plus your questions on travel sourcing and AirB&B; above the line marketing; and the best categories for big savings.
