“Standardising and stabilising processes is far more important than the actual systems that are used . I would recommend doing this first , and then introducing tools to support .”
SUKI BECKER VP PROCUREMENT & REAL ESTATE , GfK
“ Aside from that , we want partners that are committed to sustainability and understand that we need to work on this together .
“ I think there is still a gap in the service industry . And , although GfK has come a long way on this in the past few years , some of our suppliers are still lagging behind .
“ So , we ’ re investing time with our suppliers now to help them through this journey – as we ’ ve just been through it , we understand the requirements .”
