CPOs, Navigate Procurement Challenges Amid Tariff Volatility

Amid shifting tariff landscapes, procurement teams must strategically manage their operations to reduce or mitigate potential impacts. The unpredictability in trade policies and tariffs introduced by the U.S. Federal policy changes compels chief procurement officers (CPOs) to reassess their strategies and highlights the need for organizations to implement robust frameworks for evaluating risk exposure. According to the 2025 Gartner Tariff Volatility survey, 74% of chief supply chain officers (CSCOs) say new U.S. tariffs are a key trigger to significantly change their supply chain strategy. Once risk exposure has been assessed, organizations need to prioritize tariff risks and determine their response strategies.
