Procurement Professional is the official publication of CIPS Australasia

The Buyer's Blog 

THE BUYER’S BLOG is an occasional viewpoint on matters relevant to procurement professionals from a former senior procurement manager with a naturally biased, but totally justified, opinion. Generally the blog aims to offer relevant and practical down-to-earth opinions that help busy procurement professionals see through the fog of complexity they are often presented with to simply do a better job.
