Procurement teams can help other departments identify their current resources and true needs, conduct thorough sourcing events with vetted suppliers, and negotiate best-in-class agreements. Through this process, long-term, strategic relationships can be established with the right suppliers, increasing value to the organization while ensuring the most competitive market pricing is achieved. 

Marketing is one of the newer categories being addressed by procurement departments in the world today. Like other specialized areas whose spend was traditionally kept separate from procurement and sourcing departments, marketing has some unique characteristics for which procurement professionals must be prepared. You can master methods of working with your marketing department to gain their cooperation, implement a world-class marketing procurement strategy, and, ultimately, achieve better value.
