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 optimizes and digitizes processes in order to reduce wastage and defects. As a method, tool and a culture aimed at effectiveness, efficiency and economy of organizations, Agile Procurement requires a change of paradigm. This volume examines these areas of improvement and presents best practice in the digitization of the processes. The last chapter examines the near future developments of the procurement, which the author labels Procurement 4.0. It presents also how new solutions, like Blockchain, could revolutionize procurement. 606 $aIndustrial procurement 606 $aTechnological innovations 606 $aProcurement 606 $aInnovation and Technology Management 615 0$aIndustrial procurement. 615 0$aTechnological innovations. 615 14$aProcurement. 615 24$aInnovation and Technology Management. 676 $a658.72 700 $aNicoletti$b Bernardo$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$035275 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298201203321 996 $aAgile Procurement$92503735 997 $aUNINA
