Managing corporate spend is far more complex than conducting RFPs. Learn how the most efficient and effective procurement departments operate, control costs, enforce compliance, and manage indirect spend. Managing Indirect Spend provides executives and procurement professionals with the knowledge and tools necessary to successfully reduce costs with a strong focus on the often-overlooked area of indirect spend. It also offers great value to those procurement and purchasing professionals aspiring to be leaders in the profession, regardless of the spend they manage. It includes an overview of the challenges faced when sourcing indirect spend categories, a detailed dive into the strategic sourcing process, tools that can help drive savings, technologies that drive efficiencies and compliance, and examples of success based on real-world experience. It is a how-to guide that clearly covers sourcing engagements of any complexity and provides the details needed to source effectively. The book is structured into sections covering the sourcing and procurement process, the tools and technologies, examples from the field, walkthroughs of specific sourcing engagements, guidance on building an effective sourcing team, and the information needed to become a best-in-class sourcing organization.

It is important to note that it's unfair to characterize all end users as subjective thinkers that care only about maintaining the status quo. Many are objective, have done their homework, and have a great understanding of the marketplace and the opportunities available. Others (whether or not they possess detailed information) are not happy with current suppliers and are ready for a change. Regardless, the critical consideration here is that you, as the project lead, remain objective and do not become tied into old ways of thinking about supplier relationships specifically or the marketplace in general.

As we detailed earlier in the chapter, there are several types of end users. Some could be buyers, others could be Finance people, and still others could be engineers or members of your organization's Operations team. Based on the category and the role of the end user, the types of questions you will want to ask can be very diverse. In Part Four of this book, we detail specific project examples and provide a recommended list of end‐user questions for those examples. In general, there are eight categories you should review with your end users.
