About This Webinar

Join experts from SAP, SAP Taulia, and Teva Pharmaceuticals for a 60-minute deep dive into how procurement can move from a back-office function to a core strategic pillar. We will explore how Teva Pharmaceuticals revolutionized its “Cash Culture,” moving from a 16% NWC/sales ratio to a target of 4%, releasing over $1.5B in cash from the balance sheet and securing five credit rating upgrades in just eight months.

Procurement leaders are being asked to be miracle workers – facing pressure to balance cost containment and growth for the business. In an era of market volatility and high interest rates, the most forward-thinking procurement teams are working closely with finance to achieve growth by shifting their focus to a new lever: Working Capital Management (WCM). While 44% of CFOs prioritize cost optimization, only 10% view working capital as a top procurement priority—representing a massive, untapped opportunity for those ready to lead according to Economist Impact research.
