Launched in June 2009, the JumpStart events consist of short, sharp half day events taking an intense look at some key issues focusing upon identifying and presenting the key questions you should ask, rather than presuming to advance some generic, one-size-fits-all maxims. All solutions are individual, and they will help you get to the heart of the questions for you.

Useful Q&A:

What will you learn?

How to approach procurement. Each company, as well as the opening presentation and chaired panels, will seek to draw out the key questions and approaches to procurement. What questions should you have asked yourself, your colleagues and your suppliers? What are the key issues to consider before choosing, during implementation and then in-life?

To supplement this insight you’ll be provided with the full data and presentation packs, but we won’t confuse ‘quantity of powerpoint’ with ‘insightful tips’.

Why you should attend?

The market in fulfilment and logistics solutions is changing rapidly. New competitors revise their offering and overleap established players; market leaders add capability, usability and cost-effective options; some features have become ‘standard issue’ whereas others could give a competitive edge for a period.

This intense half-day format will give you both insight, briefing and a chance to meet with other retailers. It will give you either a fast-track to create your own commercial procurement process, or even allow you to benchmark your existing or intended supplier against the market’s best offerings.

Who should attend?

The event is open to retailers only.

Managers responsible for procurement, or in the functional area we’re covering are very welcome.
