Gordon, PhD, FNIGP, CPPO, Professor of Practice, Strome College of Business, Old Dominion University This book heralds the new era of procurement as a creator of enterprise value and provides a roadmap for traveling this transformation journey.

5 with business intent, relationships that generate sustainable value, and transition more smoothly to steady-state governance. Mike Beals, Founder, Governance Academy, Vice President, Governance at HfS Research There are many books on the market which talk about supply chain or procurement transformation. All good... but all theoretical. This guide moves the supply chain practitioner into the realm of how to and can do with each of the transformation steps broken down into easy-to-comprehend phases of work, with plenty of practical examples and best practices from leading organizations. Philip Molnar, Chief Supply Chain Officer, Findis Group As Strategic Sourcing in the New Economy correctly points out, the overuse of power in managing the continuum of buyer/supplier relationships diminishes the effectiveness of many of these relationships and results in the destruction of potential value. Moving to a best-value orientation represents the future of procurement. Kenneth J. Petersen, PhD, Dean, College of Business and Economics, Professor of Supply Chain Management, Boise State University Strategic Sourcing in the New Economy foretells the future of strategic sourcing business models for today s fast-paced and unpredictable economy.

14 FOREWORD As a seasoned professional who has been deeply committed to the sourcing industry for the last 20 years, I was skeptical that another sourcing book could say anything that hadn t already been said. However, knowing Kate quite well and recently getting to know Bonnie made me curious and optimistic at the same time. From the very beginning, Strategic Sourcing in the New Economy: Harnessing the Potential of Sourcing Business Models for Modern Procurement drew me in... deeper and deeper. It reads like a novel, so full of case studies, points in history, and real-life examples that I couldn t put it down. And then I read it again. I thought I was an expert in sourcing until I read this book. After all, I managed large-scale strategic sourcing projects for 15 years, ran a niche supply chain consultancy, have been the CEO of SIG for the last eight years, and am constantly exposed to the best and brightest minds in sourcing. Surely that gave me as much insight as some of the most experienced professionals in the industry. And yet I learned so many things when I first read this book that I read it again, picking up a few more nuances I d missed the first time. While I intuitively knew how to create Vested relationships, I had never connected all the dots to meld that concept with sourcing methodology as well as to articulate the subtle differences in the Sourcing Business Models. People who know me well know that I am fairly opinionated and passionate about sourcing. I have shared my views widely that the Office of the CPO should have a seat equal to that of the CFO and COO. During the 2008 recession, companies turned to procurement as a place to hunker down and lead the company in shaving costs. Now things have shifted. No longer is procurement seen as tactical it is a strategic part of the company that not only has cost-cutting goals

15 xviii STRATEGIC SOURCING IN THE NEW ECONOMY but also has revenue-generating expectations. Who else in a company besides the CEO has relationships and insights into every line of business? I can answer that in two words... no one. I recently read something on a LinkedIn profile of a colleague in the industry that summed it up rather succinctly: I am not a roadblock. I am your partner. I am a strategic asset. I minimize your risk. I save you money. I think creatively. I source tactfully. I love the art of the deal. I drive value and success. I am a Procurement Professional. This book helps showcase this very well... it creates a mindset shift that will help many people understand the incredible strategic impact that we as procurement professionals have on our organizations. Trust me when I tell you that after reading this book, you will be able to empty much of your bookshelf. This is truly the only sourcing book you need (until the authors write the next one). It is so compelling that it is a required book for SIG University certification at the Executive/CPO level. Strategic Sourcing in the New Economy so skillfully references the application of the process to the various business situations you will encounter and offers such great tools you can download and use right away that you will want to make this required reading for all your staff. This book provides you with everything you need to demonstrate the complex strategic advantage that sourcing can bring to your company. Truly. I am humbled to write the foreword for this book. Kate, Bonnie, Jeanne, and Karl have done the industry proud and set the bar very high. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I have... and utilize it as a professional reference for years to come. Humbly, Dawn Tiura President and CEO SIG, the Original Executive Sourcing Network
