Tactical Procurement

Tactical procurement refers to the short-term purchasing activities that support a company's immediate needs. This involves sourcing and acquiring goods and services efficiently, often focusing on cost control and timely delivery. Tactical procurement is driven by current demands, such as seasonal promotions or urgent project requirements, rather than long-term strategic goals. It aims to optimize resources and manage supplier relationships to ensure the organization can operate smoothly while balancing cost and quality. Essentially, it’s about making smart purchasing decisions quickly to support day-to-day operations.
