		Strategic Sourcing and Category Management: Lessons Learned in IKEA

Strategic Sourcing and Category Management examines how category management works in practice, drawing insight from IKEA. With over twenty-five years' experience of purchasing at IKEA, Magnus Carlsson shares the wisdom gained from devising and executing IKEA's highly successful purchasing strategies. The text is supported by insightful interviews and case studies, which are compared and contrasted with examples from other leading companies. Strategic Sourcing and Category Management answers three critical questions: -When is category management a profitable method and why? -How do category teams create real results? -How can category management be organized and implemented effectively? In answering these three questions, Magnus Carlsson not only presents the guiding principles behind category based sourcing, he also demonstrates how category based sourcing can effectively be implemented in practice and provides guidance on how to realise the benefits of this approach. Cleverly connecting theory and practice, the book draws upon both existing and new tools, and applies them in a highly practical context. With application spanning far beyond IKEA, this book is an invaluable resource for procurement professionals in any industry. Strategic Sourcing and Category Management is the result of twenty five years' experience of Strategic Sourcing within IKEA and collaboration with several companies and the Stockholm School of Economics.

I am a Global Sourcing Manager, I really appreciated the pragmatical approach of Sourcing process in Magnus Carlsson's book.
This is definitely more than just another book on purchase or sourcing process, it is a toolbox that will help me in my job, to move my scope of responsabilities, to organize my priorities and to set up another strategy on my sourcing activities.
This book's phylosophy opened me new ways of thinking.
I recommend it to all buyers, from small to big companies if you want to developp your thinking and for sure to improve the competitiveness of your company.

A great, highly relevant and hands on book on the topic of sourcing and procurement category management!

I am a purchaser. I have read the book two times and implemented some of the methods already into my business area. The best things with the book : 1) it is easy to read 2) easy to implement to any kind of sourcing & purchasing project no matter how complex or simple the project is 3) it always aims the achieve best possible results . The methodology described in the book is dynamic not static so it is amendable, can be updated by purchasers as well. I really suggest this book to any kind of purchaser (junior or very senior) or any related party doing business with purchasing , sourcing etc.
