Activity 9Category profile
Overview
Creating a category profile requires in-depth research of the organisational expenditure that is incorporated within in each category. This information is normally developed as a precursor to the supply-market profile, as it helps the category team define all of the key internal information relating to the category, such as scope, business requirements, spend patterns, and contracts and so forth. The collation of relevant data is systematically gathered through a template approach, which sets out the internal detail needed to assist with the development of a category strategy.
