Digital trade networks and global shipping lanes are being redefined by rising tariffs. MOR Consulting Group™ urges leaders to rethink procurement strategies now—before it hits your bottom line.

That’s the message from Charlene Currie, President and Founder of MOR Consulting Group™, in her recently published article: “The New Rules of Trade: Why Businesses Must Rethink Procurement Strategies Now.” The piece urges executives to take immediate, strategic action instead of waiting for clarity that may never come.

“This isn’t the moment to panic—it’s the moment to lead,” says Currie. “The smartest organizations aren’t waiting for certainty—they’re stabilizing their procurement strategy now to preserve value and reduce exposure.”

The article outlines where procurement vulnerabilities are hiding in plain sight:

• Outdated sourcing models misaligned with today’s tariff landscape
• Supplier relationships built for convenience, not risk
• Procurement teams operating in silos—while finance scrambles to quantify the hit to the P&L

It delivers strategic guidance and clear direction for executives, procurement leads, and public sector decision-makers who are ready to shift from reactive to intentional.
