Procurement’s North Star: An Evidence-Based Framework for Measuring and Maximizing Enterprise Value
In a world of constant trade-offs, cost vs. value, speed vs. resilience, procurement leaders face growing pressure. As a result, savings targets alone are no longer sufficient. Instead, organizations need a unifying metric that consistently aligns day‑to‑day decisions with broader enterprise value.
Deeloped in close collaboration with Professor David L. Loseby MCIOB, Chartered, FAPM, MIoD, FCMI, FCIPS Chartered, FRSA, FICW, ProcureAbility’s North Star: An Evidence-Based Framework for Measuring and Maximizing Enterprise Value directly addresses this need. Specifically, the report explores today’s most pressing organizational constraints and offers industry‑leading insights to overcome them. By combining real‑world procurement experience with academic rigor, the framework introduces the North Star Metric (NSM) as a clear, actionable guide for improving decision‑making across the enterprise.
Inside the report, you’ll:
- Solve the alignment gap: Learn how the NSM helps teams focus on what truly drives enterprise value.
- Navigate the polycrisis with a resilient, value‑driven model: Also, get a practical, evidence‑based approach to balancing competing imperatives.
- Unlock end‑to‑end value through collaboration and innovation: Discover five critical enablers that help leading organizations collaborate, innovate, and accelerate performance.
- Turn strategy into results: Ultimately, understand how success depends on shared ownership, better data, trust, and steady adoption, not legacy KPIs.
By using the NSM to anchor procurement decisions to value and growth, organizations reduce complexity and move beyond siloed priorities. As a result, stakeholders align around shared outcomes, collaboration improves, and resilience strengthens, supporting sustained enterprise performance over time.
