    All of the Procurement News - Procurement Says No Ep43
    2026/05/11
    Procurement Says No is now sponsored by Kodiak Hub - The SRM suite that makes you smarter. Not with a shirt and tie or fancy blouse; no - smarter as in intelligent.

    In episode 43 Rich and Ed have so much procurement based news, we have become a news channel for procurement professionals. It's basically all of the procurement news, including:
    • AI automation surges;
    • CIPS pulse survey excitement;
    • The challenge to the “most financially significant procurement process in UK history”;
    • Proxima's incredible procurement themes for 2026 (you'll be amazed);
    • EU public procurement to be simplified shock;
    • Not one, but two book reviews;
    • And Kodiak Hub's CRO names many different species of bear
    It's all so exciting you'll be massively off the pace if you miss out.

    P.S. We're using the procurement space cats image on this episode just because we like it.

  • The Answer to Everything - war, risk, chicken dinners and weaponised supply chain - Ep42

    The Answer to Everything - war, risk, chicken dinners and weaponised supply chain - Ep42
    2026/04/01
    Rich and Ed are riffing about everything - and have THE ANSWER!

    Most importantly whether an air rifle or cross bow is better at defending procurement teams from chicken attack drones.

    Plus everything you needed to know about procurement; supply chain; risk; AOG; CIPS; buying Chinese chickens; weaponising supply chain; war in the middle east; and AI replacing your procurement role.

    And SIG - Sourcing Industry Group or Spectrum is Green (with thanks to Captain Scarlet), and the latest dead member of Motorhead.

    And why cats protect you on the toilet.

    So get ready to update your supply chain disruption excel spreadsheet.

    The only procurement podcast listened to in space. Possibly.
