In 2019, we collaborated with SAP to understand the current trends, practices, challenges, and behaviors in relation to the digital buying of enterprise software solutions. That report, 2019 B2B Digital Buyers’ Journey: Trends, Challenges, and Predictions, offered an inside look at the shift from traditional buying cycles to whenever the need arises to meet the needs of an organization.
And then our world underwent a dramatic shift. Over the last three years, nearly every industry across every geography has changed — tremendously. And while some stability has emerged in the last year, we are still witnessing uncertainty across the economy, supply chains, and even the workforce.
In our latest report, 2022 B2B Digital Buyers’ Journey: Forces Shaping the Future of Enterprise Procurement, we once again partnered with SAP, building on the prior survey, to understand the forces that have shaped both the demand for and the process of, enterprise software procurement. We share the findings of our recent study on the subject informed by the opinions of 1,000 global decision makers, enterprise software buyers, and IT leaders.
In this research paper, you will learn:
- The change drivers organizations are navigating
- How leaders are stepping up
- An exploration into how decision-making is more complex than ever
- Why collaboration, often remote, is key
- The changing role of the sales rep
- The role of software demos and trials
- A look into the future of procurement
Our research has shown that procurement teams are playing an increasingly vital role in discovering, selecting, and helping deliver the enterprise software organizations need to meet their ever-changing business requirements.
