We believe SM’s ultimate destination will be to play the role of “Market Managers”, through deep understanding of their companies external markets. Key themes are close integration with sales and marketing, strong sensing and responding capabilities and the capability to optimise cost and balance risk. This requires procurement to have an “Entrepreneurial Core”

We invite your comments and views to develop this theme further.

Thanks,

Dave
