Conference Day Two: May 20th, 2026

11:45 AM BEYOND COST CONTROL: ROLES, BOUNDARIES, AND MODERN OPERATING MODEL FOR PROCUREMENT GBS

Procurement in GBS is evolving from a back-office cost centre to a strategic partner driving enterprise value. This evolution introduces new complexities in role definition, boundary management, and operating model design between Procurement, Finance, and GBS. Join this session to hear how we can untangle this complexity and delivery value with a centralised modern procurement model:
· Providing clarity of roles and responsibilities with the blurred ownership of end-to-end Source-to-Pay (S2P)
· Identifying approaches to aligning procurement objectives with enterprise strategy and growth
· Metrics that move beyond savings to demonstrate business enablement and impact
· Governance and engagement models that enhance collaboration with business units
