Building procurement in complexity: How NG Nordic turned fragmentation into impact
Building procurement in a decentralized, fast-growing organization is rarely structured— and almost never straightforward. When Marjut Siekkinen joined NG Nordic, the ambition was clear, but the reality was fragmented: 80+ companies, multiple ways of working, and no shared playbook. Marjut shares how progress didn’t come from perfect processes, but from tough trade-offs, prioritizing impact over completeness, and redefining how procurement creates value. By shifting the conversation from activities to measurable outcomes, procurement stopped talking about value- and started making it visible.
Keynote
The state of Nordic Procurement: What 156 leaders and €41 billion in spend tell us
Procurement influences most of a company's cost base, but the Nordics have never had a shared picture of how the function is actually doing. Together with EY and Silf Competence, Ignite built one: a survey of 156 procurement leaders alongside a benchmark of €41 billion in real spend. This session walks through the findings, what separates the top companies from, and what we'd do with the data.
