About this listen

In this episode of Procurement Stories, we explore the strategic role procurement plays in the success of mergers and acquisitions with Eric Bourgeois, Procurement & Supply Chain Director at Swile. Eric shares his hands-on experience with the unique challenges and opportunities procurement professionals face during acquisitions, especially when dealing with limited access to information before the deal closes.


In this conversation, we dive into topics such as:

👉 Surprises post-acquisition and how to prepare for the unexpected

👉 Procurement’s evolving role from traditional cost-cutting to becoming a profitability driver

👉 Re-establishing supplier credibility

👉 Creating a culture of negotiation with practical steps to embed negotiation skills across the organization

👉 Building Swile’s procurement foundation from a solo role to a fully functioning team

👉 How to transform procurement into a center of excellence


Tune in for a deep dive into the strategic influence of procurement on successful M&A outcomes!
