		<description><![CDATA[In tough economic times, companies turn to their procurement departments for more fiscally-disciplined policies that help reign-in unchecked spending and wasted resources. Increasingly, companies are subjecting strategic and creative services to standardized procurement processes across the board without differentiation. And while this is great for their bottom lines, it is restricting their ability to come up with the innovative ideas necessary for brand leadership.]]></description>

That indelible association has continued unabated, influencing modern art, music and fashion – spawning new industries and creating massive profit based on the images McLaren helped invent.
