Amazon Business Reshape Event 2022

Strategic sourcing continues to be a leadership priority to drive organisational objectives such as cost reduction, digital transformation, and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). In this session, you will learn how enterprises are using Amazon Business digital purchasing solutions to increase agility and efficiency, and accelerate growth. You’ll hear about strategies and best practices from global Fortune 500 companies to help you reshape buying.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, trade wars, supply chain issues and an inflationary environment have created an unparalleled opportunity for procurement leaders to rise to the occasion and elevate the role of the profession. In this session, we will explore the key trends that procurement leaders should focus on as they continue to grow the function’s influence in 2022 and beyond.

Ensuring strong controls and spend management have been at the centre of procurement strategy for decades. The past few years have thrown these models off-balance, and combined with the accelerating pace of business, organisations are recalibrating what it means to be both efficient and agile. In this session, learn how organisations are using agile procurement processes to adapt decentralised work environments and manage risk exposure while building supplier redundancy.

Even with environmental and sustainability goals in place, many organisations do not have effective sourcing strategies or the right technology to purchase more responsibly. In this session, you will learn how to implement successful programmes to easily identify and source from credentialed diverse, local, and small businesses, and how to use digital tools to gain visibility into purchasing patterns to help track progress with sustainability goals.

Digitising procurement operations has allowed many organisations to meet sourcing demands, boost productivity, and optimise costs. In this session, you will uncover ways to use intelligent procurement, powered by machine learning and analytics, to automate and simplify processes for your teams to buy for work, track spend and purchasing patterns for improved decision making, and scale digital procurement through integrations and payment solutions.

Rapid growth can come with long vendor lists, tedious invoices, and lack of visibility into spending. In this session, we’ll show you how businesses can automate routine buying processes to save time and simplify operations, make better data-driven decisions using real-time analytics, and empower employees with the tools and business selection they need for work.

For businesses of any size, digitalisation is no longer an option. Hear from a panel of leaders on how they are simplifying employee purchasing with a one-stop shopping experience, customised buying policies, and convenient delivery options – all with the familiar purchasing experience of Amazon.

A host of new products and solutions are ready to help Amazon Business customers get the most out of their procurement strategies, with time-saving tools designed to help you optimise spend, streamline reconciliation, and drive compliance with internal purchasing policies. Join us for a lightning-fast look at the newest technologies from Amazon Business for mobile purchasing, integrated eProcurement, approval policies, customised delivery, and more.

In this session, you will learn about new Business Prime features that can help you realise greater savings and efficiencies. We will share tips on how to get the most from your Business Prime membership, demo our most popular features, and highlight how organisations use tools such as Guided Buying and Spend Visibility to gain spend intelligence and improve decision making.

Many organisations have documented CSR initiatives, but buying from local, diverse, and more sustainable suppliers can be a manual and time-consuming process. Organisations can purchase over 200,000 products with the Climate Pledge Friendly label from 39 certifiers. Certifications include EPEAT and ENERGY STAR, and certifiers such as Forest Stewardship Council. Learn how to implement organisation-wide or departmental buying policies that reinforce your organisation’s CSR purchasing goals, such as preferring local and diverse sellers and purchasing products with sustainability certifications.

The shift to digital procurement empowers organisations to scale savings, efficiencies, and insights at an unprecedented pace. Dive into the newest technologies for purchasing, reconciliation, and analysis from Amazon Business and get an in-depth view of tools you can use to streamline shopping experiences, simplify and automate procurement processes, and drive business insights through analytics with trusted software solutions

Organisations need greater visibility into spend along with solutions that can turn insights into actions. In this session, you will learn about tools to help  you visualise spend through custom reports and dashboards, improve compliance with internal purchasing policies, and maintain control with purchasing guardrails. Learn how Amazon Business Analytics, Spend Visibility, Guided Buying, and Approval Policies can equip you to drive compliance at scale.

When purchasing for an organisation, selection, flexibility, and efficiency are top of mind. To bring greater value and scale for growth, organisations need tools that empower them to work more productively. Hear how European companies are using Amazon Business payment solutions to automate accounting and administrative tasks; reshape buying processes with more innovative solutions; and drive efficiency in purchasing and beyond through eInvoicing, Pay by Invoice (PBA), Invoiced by Amazon (IBA), and many more solutions.

Digital transformation (DX) has become increasingly important in the era of uncertainty. Purchasing has become an important area where digitisation is required to reduce costs and improve productivity. How have Japanese organisations adopted DX and what are the unique challenges to implementing it? In this session, we will discuss new regulations and demonstrate eInvoicing to help accelerate digitisation.
