Reducing costs has long been the purview of the chief procurement officer: slimming down margins meant they were doing a good job.
The pandemic hasn’t completely upended cost savings as a priority, but it has shifted it into second place, according to Deloitte’s 2021 Global Procurement Officer Survey. For the first time since the company started producing the survey in 2011, driving operational efficiencies is the top CPO priority.
The results reflect the changing role of the CPO, which now encompasses innovation, digital transformation, and introducing new products and services, among others, said Ryan Flynn, principal at Deloitte and author of the report. It also reflects that CPOs are doing business in a more complex world, with everything from climate change to geopolitical stability and yes, pandemics affecting how they best help their business’ overall mission.

The former dean of Temple s Fox School of Business is being charged with federal crimes after being ousted due to an investigation that found the school manipulated data to become the number one ranked MBA program in the country.
Former dean Moshe Porat was indicted on one count each of conspiracy and wire fraud, according to NBC Philadelphia. His lawyer vigorously denied the charges.
Isaac Gottlieb, a statistics professor, and Marjorie O Neill, who submitted data to magazines that rank college programs, were also named in the indictment, according to the report.
Temple s online MBA had been ranked top in the nation by U.S. News and World Report since 2015. The university stayed at the top of the list for 3 years after that and used its ranking to attract students and win donations.

Temple s online MBA was ranked the top program in the nation by U.S. News and World Report starting in 2015, the first time online MBA programs were ranked by the magazine. And it stayed number one for three more years a lucrative rank used to attract prospective students and win donations to the Fox School of Business.
Fox kept 87% of the revenue generated by its online MBA program, the indictment says.
But that number-one rank was built on faked data, several investigations have since found.
Porat, Gottlieb and O Neill falsified how many students had taken standardized test scores to get in, faked incoming students’ GPAs, made it appear the college was more selective than it was and lowered how much its graduates owed in loans, according to the indictment.
