Including several case studies of successful implementation, it demonstrates how the increasing complexity of the business environment requires a significant intervention on the management of processes and information within individual organizations and through inter-company relations. Agile Procurement presents the application of the Agile method which optimises and digitizes processes in order to reduce wastage and defects. As a method, tool and a culture aimed at effectiveness, efficiency and economy of organisations, agile procurement requires a change of paradigm. This volume examines these areas of improvement and presents best practice in improving processes. Each chapter of the book presents and substantiates the costs and benefits of process improvement through agile procurement. This is is seen as the integration of Lean Six Sigma and digitization.Industrial procurementManagementIndustrial managementE-businessElectronic commerceE-commerceProcurementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/519040Innovation/Technology Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/518000e-Business/e-Commercehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/522060Industrial procurement.Management.Industrial management.E-business.Electronic commerce.E-commerce.Procurement.Innovation/Technology Management.e-Business/e-Commerce.658.72Nicoletti Bernardoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut35275BOOK9910298202303321Agile Procurement2503735UNINA
