Check out E-Sourcing Forum all week, starting on Monday. We will be officially releasing the findings of our e-Sourcing Benchmark Diagnostic report. I am going to highlight a specific item each day that will be based on the data we collected in Q4 2005. The survey (which used Iasta SmartSource technology, of course) was created internally and covered a wide range of spend management/e-Sourcing issues. I think there is some very interesting insights that we discovered as a result of the data. The final report was created by our team led by Melissa Beuc and Jason Treida and each respondent received a custom benchmark report that focused on their own specific answers. This final report is a holistic view of the data covering over 40 detailed questions about strategic sourcing tactics, technology usage patterns, future plans and perceived vs. real benefits.

Below are some of the demographic details that were captured during the study.

    Can’t wait to see the results of your research. I’m jealous that you’ve learned to use the image feature in posting blogs before me :-)
