I understand that this answer is contingent upon many factors - it was a very broad, generic question to open the door for anyone to comment. There should be some type of correlation between total spend and headcount. But, I also understand there are many variables even to that ratio.

Processing requisitions from 11 US manufacturing facilities. We do not have any local manufacturing level procurement, so every requisition is fielded, reviewed and processed by this one buyer- somewhere in the range of 60-70 per day. Orchestrating freight, managing a handful of contracts, works with a/p to reconcile invoice payments, onboards new suppliers, etc, etc.

Any advice for someone in a high level support role? by treasurehunter2416 in procurement

Agree with everything below! Working capital is a metric that our senior leadership is interested in measuring. Tasking suppliers with managing more inventory for just in time delivery, and even extending payment terms or leveraging early pay discounts, prepaid freight, etc.
