Meet the Author Series with Kate Vitasek: Contracting in the New Economy (WC&C,)
November 1st, 10am ET
Kate Vitasek is one of my favorite procurement/supply chain authors, so it you haven’t ‘met’ her, this is the perfect opportunity! She has the experience and perspective required to help you make sure your contracts aren’t the ‘same old same old’ standard agreements – especially for strategic or non-traditional spend categories.
Partnership as a Service: Driving Change & Delivering Unconventional Returns at UMass (Art of Procurement, SupplyLogic)

In this AOP Live event, David Cho, Chief Procurement Officer and Managing Director at the University of Massachusetts, and Philip Schoonmaker, CEO of SupplyLogic, will share UMass’ journey to manage their marketing and print services spend through strategic partnerships and then answer live audience questions – no slides!
Achieving all-round transparency through risk management (Procurement Leaders, riskmethods)
