October 21 - 23, 2018 | Fairmont Dallas, Dallas, TX
Welcome to the Chief Procurement Officer Exchange
The CPO Exchange is targeted to the executive level-Procurement practitioner responsible for improving outcomes across the source-to-pay value chain. At the level of decision-maker, it is vital to understand the dynamics of today’s new digital and improved process opportunities, and to grasp the potential loss that keeps the status quo engenders. There really is only one objective, to better serve the customer: internal, external and supplier, at every touchpoint of their experience.
This unique immersive event offers best-in-breed technologies, process models and best practices, designed to automate and augment transactional-level communication so that more strategic initiatives toward cost optimization, streamlined process-flow and smart analytics, can better inform decision-making. See what Digital Transformation looks like for the Procurement organization, and how Procurement investments in optimization techniques, new technologies and process redesign, serve the strategic direction of the business.
We invite you to join us for an unparalleled event and experience, designed for Heads of Procurement only.
