Procuri coverage

3 comments September 21st, 2007 David Bush - Iasta

As usual, Spend Matters is the nerve center of news within all things procurement. Jason has been doing a great job of keep his finger on the pulse of this huge change within the software sourcing ecosystem. Unbelievably, some of the leading industry news outlets like CPO Agenda, SupplyChainBrain and ELP have not even recognized the story and sit blankly staring ahead.

Purchasing Magazine and SDCExec do have coverage of the news, which is great to see. I have to give Supply and Demand Chain Exec the nod here, they did a nice job of reporting multiple angles and adding input beyond the press release. They even referenced the blogs for extensive coverage, although there is no mention that this whole thing was actually broken by the blogging community prior to the announcement.

Separately, I am wondering what will happen to our blogging brethren, Supply Excellence? Will Spend Matters and Supply Excellence now merge? Will Jason acquire Tim? I fear we will soon be losing part of the family as collateral damage from the acquisition…
