Equipping you with the capacity and capability to succeed
Modern demands on Procurement are numerous and varied, from transforming the cost base to finding innovative supplier solutions to driving sustainability performance. Organizations have high expectations for Procurement, but many CPOs cite capacity and capability as a key concern. Creating a team with the right blend of capabilities to meet complex and changing needs is a common challenge and one that most often requires a flexible approach.
In today’s fast-paced business landscape, organizations need quick access to specialized resources, individuals, and expertise. From technology teams working on innovative projects to customer-facing roles, finding the right mix of skills and experience is crucial. These skills are often not carried in-house due to their scarcity and specialist nature. Proxima’s Resource on Demand service provides a dynamic, flexible solution to meet your organization’s ever-changing needs.
“When running an agile Procurement team, it provides optimal value to flex and bolster that team with Proxima’s expertise as and when the need arises.”
