In this room, the expertise doesn't just sit on the stage. Managing MRO and facilities suppliers across regions is one of the most complex challenges in procurement right now — and everyone in this session is dealing with some version of it. In this reverse Q&A format, the panelists put the questions to you. They'll draw on the collective intelligence in the room to surface real approaches, pressure-test assumptions, and build a richer picture of how organizations at different scales are navigating global supplier complexity, tariff volatility, and supply continuity risk. 

• Leave with peer-sourced strategies for managing supplier complexity across regions — not just theory, but what's actually working 
• Understand how organizations at different scales are approaching supply continuity when global conditions shift fast 
• Hear candid takes on where global standardization helps — and where local flexibility is non-negotiable 

Hidden fees and unclear terms can quietly erode your MRO & Facilities savings. In this hands-on workshop, learn how to structure contracts that close loopholes, clarify service expectations, and establish predictable, transparent pricing. Walk away with proven frameworks and negotiation tips to protect your budget and strengthen supplier accountability.

• Identify hidden costs buried in contract language
• Structure agreements to ensure price transparency and consistency
