This Week in Procurement

This Week in Procurement: A CPO’s “To-Do” List for the First 100 Days and Much More…

My “Must Read” article this week comes from Greg Tennyson, CPO of VSP and was published on Art of Procurement.  I think this is the first time that I have featured an Art of Procurement article as a must read – frankly, because I launched This Week in Procurement as a way to feature writing from across the procurement ecosystem. However, this one has been very well received – and is an article that I love.

Greg shares a 100-day “to-do” list for the new CPO, or for procurement leaders embarking on a transformation program. The Moolah mascot that he created at VSP has become legendary within Northern California procurement circles!
