2020 is destined to be unusual. Changes in the economic environment, regulations, and changes in consumer demand caused by global epidemics and geopolitical conflicts brought huge challenges to the supply chain, which also poses challenges to procurement leaders. With the in-depth application of digital technology, companies have long demanded more than just cost savings for procurement professionals. They need to play a more important role in promoting business flexibility and agility.

New risks bring new opportunities, and there is no doubt that digital technology is changing the way goods and services are purchased, tracked, delivered, and managed. Remodeling and reinvention now is the time to reflect on the impact of procurement onbusiness; it is also time to make full use of the power of technology and innovation to embrace agility and build a resilient procurement supply chain under the New Normal.
