Hewlett Packard Successfully Tackles Global Services Procurement

Corporate consumption of outside services and contingent labor is on the rise globally – doesn’t it make sense to get services spend under management? While many agree, few organizations have begun to address it, because it’s challenging. How do you manage a program with so many stakeholders across the globe? How do you incorporate the diverse cultures, tax codes and laws? How do you address sacred cows?

As you look for new areas of addressable spend, know that the Services Procurement trail has been blazed by practitioners willing to share their hard-earned knowledge. Join us for a one-hour webinar to hear about the journey Hewlett Packard has made in their quest to build a world-class services procurement program. During this Webcast you will learn:

• Best practices and lessons learned from earlier adopters: the challenges faced and how they were conquered
• How services procurement can positively impact your bottom line, drive productivity and ensure compliance with global laws and corporate policies
• The role technology plays in delivering automation and visibility and how to ensure the long-term success of your investment
• Practical examples of how to capture savings across a wide variety of services categories, such as IT services, facilities management, temporary labor and business consulting services
