Procurement 4.0 provides insights and guidance on how to best face the current and upcoming challenges for procurement organizations. Although digitization might be considered a driving factor behind Procurement 4.0 it is far too shortsighted to limit Procurement 4.0 solely on apps and automation.
To gain a clearer picture of future procurement, the authors conducted interviews with leading procurement heads of global corporates such as BMW, Lufthansa, Maersk, BP and Allianz. These industry examples combined with various other cases offer a practical view to shed light on this still rather theoretical construct.
Four dimensions of a 4.0 Procurement framework are further explored to address and react to business needs of the future: Competing value chains, co-creation, leadership and digital transformation. Besides industry examples, each chapter contains "survival tips" as impulses for procurement managers to lift their teams to the next level.

»Es gibt leider viel zu selten Bücher, die vom Titel her neugierig machen, und die, wenn man hineinschaut, auch noch Pfiff haben. Das vorliegende Buch ist ein solches.« Prof. Dr. Robert Fieten, Beschaffung aktuell, 01.09.2017

Die Schrift ist […] ein engagierter Weckruf an die Einkaufsmanager, den Aufbruch in die digitale Zukunft jetzt und heute zu wagen. Den Status quo skizzieren die prägnanten Interviews mit Einkaufsmanagern aus bekannten Unternehmen wie unter anderem Allianz, BASF, BMW, Deutsche Post DHL, Lufthansa und Pro SiebenSat.«
