Challenge

Inconsistent, non-scalable category strategy across global procurement.

Increasingly volatile markets requiring stronger supply resilience.

Need to shift from tactical sourcing to value-driven spend management.

Results

Faster development of higher-quality, standardized category strategies.

75% of procurement spend now covered by category strategies.

Increased resilience against supply chain disruptions.

Enhanced documentation to articulate procurement value.

"Before, you were trying to sell what procurement could do for the business. Now our category managers can confidently show and make them part of the solution by asking for input — which increases ownership and buy-in."
— Gary Froehlich, Director of Procurement COE, Molson Coors
