“Play the long game, avoid myopic thinking and approaches to solve immediate problems as much as you can, and treat your suppliers as your customers or clients.” – Darshan Deshmukh, President at ProcureAbility

Procurement leaders are facing unparalleled uncertainty – trade wars, shifting regulations, and headlines that change overnight. Pressure is mounting to build more resilient, agile supply chains, but most organizations are battling change fatigue as well as a need to redefine value.

Procurement has to rewire their operating model for a future where disruption is the norm.

In this Art of Procurement podcast episode, Philip Ideson and Kelly Barner are joined by Darshan Deshmukh, President at ProcureAbility. Darshan shares real-world stories about how teams are grappling with global risk and why some are seeing volatility as an engine for growth, while others are retrenching. The conversation addresses how CPOs can actively manage optionality in their supply chains, and how procurement leaders can spot – and address – risk fatigue in their teams.

If you want to understand what it means to create a cost-effective and resilient, opportunity-ready supply chain, this episode gives you the roadmap.

In this episode, Darshan discusses how to:

  • Adapt your approach for regional differences in geopolitical risk
  • Invest in supply chain optionality, even if it adds time and/or cost
  • Transition from transactional work to collaborative, strategic relationship building
  • Use data and human judgment to separate real risks from noise
