#19 - Alessandra Rossella Mercuri, Procurement Director Italiaonline

Procurement is no longer the Cinderella of company functions, but a team that sits at the table with internal clients.

Alessandra Rossella Mercuri (Procurement Director Italiaonline), who we interviewed for our Compri Bene Podcast, tells us.

What we take home:

• Turning a purely administrative purchasing function into one that sits at the table with internal clients takes deliberate work, not just a title change.
• Data isn't just for control, it's for building better partnerships with suppliers, especially inside a digital context that keeps evolving.
