The Hackett Group launches 2026 Procurement Agenda and Key Issues Study

Hackett Group Study

The Hackett Group has launched its popular Procurement Agenda and Key Issues Study for 2026, with the goal of generating insights on procurement function priorities, plans and strategies for next year and beyond.

It’s one of the few global studies that breaks down ANZ data in comparison – thanks in part to the participation of PASA’s community.

In return, PASA gets the ANZ data presented at The PASA Connect CPO Roundtable and the Australian CPO Exchange event each year.

Participate today and gain insights into:

  • Essential company-wide objectives, issues and risks for 2026
  • Key trends that will have a transformational impact on the procurement agenda over the next five years
  • 2026 key objectives and transformation plans for procurement teams
  • Projected changes in procurement workloads, staffing levels, operating budgets and technology spending
  • Technology deployment to enable procurement processes
  • The use of AI-enabled technology to empower procurement capabilities


Designed for procurement leaders who have visibility into strategic objectives for 2026, the survey is completely confidential and closes on 3 October.

Questions are divided into three sections (demographics, procurement-function-specific and enterprise-level) and should take approximately 20 minutes to complete.

Participants will receive an anonymised research report with composite results and an exclusive invitation to a webcast that will delve into important findings from the research.
