Good Review Business Consulting Wows! Answers to Life and Business Issues

Dr. Tom DePaoli’s Advice, Adventures, Career Tips.

 View on Amazon.

If you need some strategies and tactics for procurement and the supply chain this is your go-to reference book. I greatly enjoyed his entertaining stories and commitment to treating people fairly. Dr. Tom seems to always come up with creative solutions. I especially like the information-based approach to negotiations. It is a lot of work but much more effective to obtain a competitive edge and breakthroughs. I enjoyed his cautions and mistakes made on e-procurement implementation:

1. Not creating a comprehensive procurement or supply chain strategy first or a plan that aligns with an e-business strategy and e-procurement strategy.

2. Putting the e- before procurement. Technology and e-procurement won’t fix current unsound procurement practices.

3. Not performing comprehensive strategic supplier sourcing overhaul first and failure to prepare suppliers for e-procurement.

This book should be kept handy and referenced much for all supply chain professionals. His articles are very insightful and poignant.
