How does the Maturity Assessment work?
The assessment is structured around six proven dimensions of category management excellence: Category Management Strategy, Stakeholder Engagement, Organisation Structure, Capability & Mindset, Process and Technology, and Value Impact.
Participants complete a 15-minutes online survey. Future Purchasing will consolidate, analyse, and benchmark the individual responses against industry leaders to form the basis of a high energy 3-hour workshop that we facilitate with your procurement leadership team.
Performance can be analysed across your organisation as a single entity or for specific procurement teams or business units, allowing relative comparison across the organisation.
Precise recommendations are documented against each question and prioritised into a clear roadmap to category management excellence – tailored for your organisation.
