Procurement Implementation Services
Procurement Implementation - Overview
As businesses implement procurement transformation strategies and delivery plans for their procurement function, the real challenge lies in the efficient and effective implementation of these opportunities.
We address this challenge by leveraging project management and extensive market engagement experience as well as tested and proven training and processes to capture value and enhance capability to ensure that business improvements and benefits are realised and sustained.
Key Capabilities
Sourcing and Negotiations
Our sourcing and negotiation methodologies are rigorous, fact based and address relevant levers in creating ongoing value for businesses. They also include collaborative solution co-design, rapid sourcing, tactical sourcing, and reverse auctions. The objective is to reduce the total cost of ownership and improve service delivery.
Team Upskilling
Building and improving capabilities is key when increasing the value delivered by the procurement team to the business. We upskill employees by combining proven coaching techniques with a comprehensive training catalogue developed by our procurement professionals, which produces actionable deliverables for each team member.
Change Management
Implementation of improved procurement solutions can affect people, process and systems. Our team understands that change management is a vital element to implementing a program of work, which can determine adoption rates and long-term success for businesses.
Policy Development
When procurement policies are not aligned to business and procurement objectives, it becomes a burden for all stakeholders. Our team critically reviews and revises procurement related policies to ensure this alignment is consistent with the business’ objective.
Demand Management
In many categories, the larger portion of value that can be delivered is through addressing internal consumption rather than price reductions. We leverage our best-in-class intellectual property to test and implement the different demand value levers within a business function: usage, fit-for-purpose specifications, policies, approval process, and reporting.
Process Improvement
Redesigning a business’ end-to-end procurement processes will improve performance and increase overall efficiency and simplicity.
Supplier Performance and Relationship Management
Monitoring suppliers’ performance management (SPM) and supplier relationship management (SRM) beyond contract establishment ensures all financial and non-financial value identified is maintained throughout contract life and issues are resolved promptly. Our frameworks and tools establish SPM and SRM and maximise value from third parties.
Category Strategy
We leverage our best-in-class intellectual property and experience to establish category strategies. We develop end-to-end strategies involving business stakeholders and support internal teams through market insights, analytics support, and templates.
