Voice of Procurement: Analysis and Insights on Supply Chain Strategy for 2023

Insights on Supply Chain Strategy and Procurement Digitization for Indian Manufacturing in 2023 

About the Release of the Whitepaper 

2023 holds significance for the Indian manufacturing sector and the Indian economy for multiple reasons. 2023 marks India’s Presidency of the G20, begins the countdown on our pledges on net zero emissions at COP26 and COP27 by 2070, and marks the beginning of the end of the COVID19 pandemic. Above all 2023 resumes the journey of CXOs in Indian manufacturing towards a USD 5 trillion GDP. Amid all the market dynamics, massive fiscal expansion by the Government of India under the aegis of the Union Budget for policies like the National Infrastructure Pipeline, PM Gati Shakti, Make in India, Bharat Mala, and Sagar Mala, CXOs need to answer to three questions to simplify procurement.  These questions relate to choices of: 

  • Supply chain strategy 
  • Procurement digitization and 
  • Output metrics 

for the line items that they procure.  

This whitepaper is aimed at enabling visibility into what supply chain and procurement leaders are prioritizing in 2023.
