Market timing and pricing is a big part of that failure. And this is exactly where sourcing and supplychain professionals can make a name for themselves.

If Procurement follows a StrategicSourcing process flow like a checklist, then all StrategicSourcing projects will start and end in the same way.
Procurement and supplychain teams will play a crucial role in making this vision a reality. By ensuring that the right goods and services are purchased at the right price and delivered on time, procurement can help to ensure that a company or organization achieves its goals.
