Evaluating E-Procurement Solutions. A CAPSResearch report written by Ram Narasimhan, Srinivas Talluri, et al. in 2003.

The brave new e-world requires different tools and a fresh mindset. Internet and web applications have already changed the global economy and the ways in which organizations conduct business. CAPS’ e-Supply Chain/e-Sourcing Project examines the impact of these applications on purchasing and supply. It seeks to identify how organizations are harnessing the connectivity and information exchange made possible by the Internet.

The e-Supply and e-Sourcing Research Program is ongoing and will generate reports at regular intervals.
