Profit lives in procurement.
Control lives in procurement.

What This Session Is About

Procurement isn’t just purchasing. It’s where decisions are protected, timelines are managed, and margin is retained. When sourcing and procurement are separated, details get lost, timelines slip, and designers are pulled back in to fix issues they didn’t control.

We’re pleased to present this Studio Session with Cheryl Horne of Business of Design®. We’ll begin with how procurement is supported and controlled, followed by Cheryl taking us through the “how.”

This is where we address the real questions: When do I introduce procurement into my process? What risk am I taking on? How much profit is actually available? How do I structure this properly? Cheryl will break down how procurement works in practice — so it supports your projects.

What we’ll cover...

The Real Value of Control why it’s beyond price

Vendor Partnerships what support actually looks like in practice

How to Structure Procurement and when to introduce it

Who Owns What Went Wrong and why that matters

Warranty & Risk Clarity what you’re responsible for (either way)

Spots are limited.
