2. Describe how price management, purchase management, transaction efficiency, and purchase standardization can each contribute to supply chain operational excellence
3. Discuss leading or emerging practices among supply chain leaders and staff contributing to organizational efforts to advance supply chain strategy, enhance operational efficiencies, reduce unfavorable variation and impact the cost of care
