Or is IT buyer market too saturated?

Moving on to try project management for a while, and intending to return to procurement if not doing well. But not sure, people said my procurement knowledge is not sufficient although I have handled data centres, mobile equipment etc.
i think there is quite a lot of people in IT procurement, especially those coming from the big IT companies like IBM and HP, where there is always lots of people coming from there

anyone can share more? especially if there are category or commodity managers out there
