		<description>State of Flux has launched a survey on Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) and it would be great if procurement proffessionals complete it. We know that SRM remains a hot topic for organisations, but creating the business case for change in this area is often challenging. All of us understand intuitively that SRM is the right thing to do, but it is difficult to put absolute values on the benefits that can be achieved through an SRM improvement programme. Because of this we have focused the survey on how organisations approach SRM and their business cases for change, the implementation and overall approach to SRM. 

It would be appreciated if you could take 5 to 10 minutes to complete the survey. We will happily provide the results upon completion of the survey and are planning to run some cross organizational workshops to discuss further so happy to invite you to join those.

The link to survey is http://www.stateofflux.co.uk//surveys/srm_survey.aspx 

Thanks</description>
