Procurement Market Analysis Based on Data and Practice

The procurement function is evolving faster than organizational structures. Cost pressure, regionalization of structures, the role of AI, and talent shortages are factors influencing leadership and organizational decisions in procurement.

In the Insights section, we publish procurement market analyses based on:

  • data from search projects,
  • research within the procurement community,
  • observation of regional and global trends.

This knowledge is built from practice, not external commentary.

Procurement Barometer

The Procurement Barometer is a cyclical study of the procurement market in Poland. The report includes, among others:

  • compensation levels within the procurement function,
  • leadership mobility and turnover,
  • competencies sought in regional and global roles,
  • impact of AI and digitalization on team structures,
  • development directions of the procurement function.

The data is sourced from hundreds of procurement professionals and from projects delivered by Big Fish.

Why We Publish

The procurement market is relatively narrow and highly relationship-driven. Access to reliable data supports:

  • informed hiring decisions,
  • compensation budget planning,
  • evaluation of functional maturity,
  • preparation for organizational transformation.

Insights are an integral part of our advisory work and a natural complement to executive search and assessment services.
