Chapter Meeting // Thursday, May 16 // San Francisco
Elevating Vendors to Partners
Join us for this informative panel session, where we will explore the challenges and opportunities surrounding modern vendor engagement. As Corporate Real Estate is a heavily outsourced industry, it's not uncommon for both owners and vendors to feel dissatisfied with their partnerships. In this discussion, we'll explore the reasons why this happens with the traditional procurement process and examine the latest advancements in the procurement and strategic sourcing fields that can lead to better outcomes!
The panel will discuss essential themes such as relationship dynamics, challenges in RFP processes, transparency, fairness, and the evolving trends in acquiring CRE services in a post-COVID world. Special guest speaker, CEO Vik Bangia of Verum Consulting.
