We are excited to announce that our client SIJ - Slovenian Steel Group has received the award for ‘Procurement Practice of the Year’ at Nabavna konferenca / Regional Procurement Conference 2024, the most important annual Procurement conference in Slovenia.

Organized by The Slovenian Združenje nabavnikov Slovenije - ZNS / Purchasing association of Slovenia, the ‘Procurement Practice Of The Year’ award celebrates outstanding transformations and excellence in Procurement.

It recognizes organizations that have increased the maturity, professionalism, and strategic positioning of the Procurement team over the last year and were able to demonstrate tangible business value for their organization.

Cirtuo has worked closely with SIJ and its CPO, Marjana Drolc Kaluža to transform and digitize the procurement organization, and position Procurement as a strategic business partner. Cirtuo is recognized as a key enabler for upskilling the Category Management team, driving the standardization of processes, and capturing tribal knowledge.
