Have you ever really wondered what your Stakeholders truly think? Today's episode we asked Project Managers what they think about Procurement & working with us. Believe us, they did not hold back! The PM's roast us and we give their roasts a rating based on how valid we think they are.

Project Managers are known for needing things done ASAP and doing whatever it takes to get the project over the line. This doesn't always line up nicely with due-diligence and research.
