As we know, many companies divided Indirect Sourcing into different categories, like : marketing, facility, IT, external resources and so on.

What is your focused area of purchasing and sourcing? I hope we could share some exprience or resources by category and expand your circle of friends.

I got a quesion for you guys, hopefully I can get at least 1 reply
I graduated this June with a bachlor degree in logistics managment. Currently I'm working at the Supply Chain dept of a Fortune 500, however Purchasing is not included in our function, instead it's a branch of "Financial Managment". I've always been interested iin purchasing and considering to transfer to purchaing. So, what kinds of expertise or experience do you suggest to get before being a professional procurement staff?
Thank you a lot!
