From a cyber-attack in New York and the Ever Given Suez Canal incident, to legislative changes in Germany and skills shortages in the UK... In this episode we take a look at procurement 'behind the headlines'. Jonathan and Paul are joined by special guest Bill Young, a procurement consultant, commentator, and host of the FORVM 499 podcast. We discuss some of the reasons these stories made the headlines, and consider if procurement was at fault or could even help prevent these incidents from happening again.
