Jinfo: Towards a Perfect Procurement Process

Towards a Perfect Procurement Process
Jinfo Article

7th August 2015

Abstract

Anders Lautrup-Larsen explains how to sign a perfect contract with your provider of information services, ebooks or subscriptions. He looks at the options for procurement, covers the ideal stakeholder formation of a procurement group, how to centralise handling of company subscriptions - and the alternatives to handling them in-house. Anders identifies how introducing structure and processes can result in more economic purchasing of journal and database subscriptions, discovery and reference tools - and how this results in more effective research.
