| | DECEMBER 20226CIOReviewAccording to the global news wire, the procurement industry is expected to reach a staggering $13.9 billion in 2030 from $6.6 billion in 2022, at a CAGR of 9.8 percent. This growth stems from increasing demand from enterprises to streamline procurement processes and the positive impact of the evolution of business process outsourcing (BPO) on procurement outsourcing. As the procurement industry keeps growing and shifting to a central figure in the value chain, they also feel more pressure to drive multi-dimensional value, bringing in new challenges, strategies, projects, and ways of working. With these new strategies and ideas, the industry is redesigning itself with digital transformation trends like touchless payments, AI, and more. One of the benefits of digital transformation is the availability of self-service portals, improving the user experience and speeding up business processes as dependencies on other people are eliminated. The portals allow organizations to lower costs and improve efficiency by providing personal and effective purchasing experiences, avoiding human errors. To put the spotlight on such key developments in the industry, CIOReview illustrates how the procurement space is leveraging the amalgamation of various technologies to execute procurement strategies. This edition also features thought leadership articles from subject matter experts.
