Abstract
Today's global purchasing and supply management combines
two main perspectives: sourcing and supply chain
management. The main focus of sourcing is on searching
and selecting suppliers, while supply chain management
focuses on developing logistics and supply processes in
collaboration between supply chain partners. Our research
agenda focuses on the challenges in combining sourcing
and supply chain management perspectives. The tentative
research perspectives in our research agenda include the
following: the management system for global purchasing
and supply management, evolution of purchasing and supply
management, purchasing and supply management capabilities
in a globally operating firm, and attractivity of the
buying firm towards desired suppliers.
