“…It has been identified that procurement does not only concern corporate way of operating within procurement to ensure a consistent, competitive standing in a volatile reality (Abdelhadi, 2017). Ultimately, it brings us back to this paper's contribution to academia through the discovery of the notion of procurement logistics, which has received attention due to a need of flexibility and transparency in the value system (Bogaschewsky, 2019). As previously discovered, as resilience is identified as a pivotal feature to meet contemporary buyer value, procurement logistics is viewed as the function to accommodate to such criteria by promoting the importance of information sharing.…”

“…According to Tracy and Sands (2011), there is a need to strengthen supply chains by bridging the gap between logistics and procurement. Essentially, in a time where transparency and holistic recognition are argued to be the means to succeed in the 'new normal', the notion of procurement logistics has received its attention due to a need of bringing further flexibility and efficiency to the supply chain (Thalbauer, 2020;Bogaschewsky, 2019), thus, enhancing the emphasis on the practice of holistic exchange of information (Büchi, et al, 2020).…”

Purpose: In the light of recent disruptive events, global supply chains have displayed their vulnerability, which has stressed the importance of procurement in modern practice. This study aims to analyse if the procurement function can be reconsidered as aprimary activity in Porter’s (1985) value chain. Design/methodology/approach: The study utilises secondary data analysis. Data were collected on the basis of searches with nine keywords, which led to a discovery of 63 sources. Findings: The study has found that the procurement function cannot be regarded as a primary activity. However, it is identified that the unification of fragments of the two activities, inbound logistics and procurement, creates the foundation for a new activity, which mitigates exposure to volatility. Consequently, the findings urge to incorporate procurement logistics into the value chain as a re-modified primary activity.
