Balfour Beatty’s UK Procurement & Supply Chain Director, Evan Sutherland, has featured in BIM+, discussing how the company is removing wasted time and money from supply chain procurement processes through the use of digital tools such as DocuSign and the Jaggaer eProcurement Portal.  

In the article, Evan explores how accelerating initiatives and digitising manual processes to improve the way Balfour Beatty works with its supply chain has been a significant means of improving efficiency at all stages of supply chain on-boarding, as well as improving engagement with supply chain partners.
