As announced last Sunday in our post on how the Masters will have the 50/50 in their Sights, this week the Spend Matters 50/50 … 50 to watch, 50 to know … list for 2016 was announced. It consists of 100 companies that every Supply Management professional should know about. (Even if the solution is not right for you, or your organization, you don’t know what tomorrow will bring after a job transfer or a merger.)
For those who missed it, this is the list of the “to know” companies, augmented with links to past SI (and SM) coverage, and annotations where coverage is coming soon!
