Growth Average growth
  Employment for purchasing managers is projected to increase because they will continue to be needed to help procure goods and services for business operations or for resale to customers. However, projected employment declines are expected due to increased automation and outsourcing of some procurement tasks. As procurement technology continues to improve, less complex procurement functions, such as finding suppliers or processing purchase orders, will likely be automated. In addition, some organizations may rely on third parties to handle other tasks, such as market research or supplier risk assessments.
