Procurement : Background
Governance People Process Enablers• Weak and traditional
policies in place• Treating procurement as
“catch basin” for supply chain issues
• Discounting procurement in strategic planning
• Few procurement centered initiatives to improve bottom line savings
• Low investment on skills development
• Stuck on “buyer only” mentality
• Lack of proper training in best practices to elevate procurement organization
• Maintaining a “silo” mentality with other business units
• Best practices are not made available or totally unused
• Dealing with too many third party intermediaries
• Lack of collaboration with other key business units
• No coordination of spend across geographic & business boundaries
• Idle and disaggregated data left unutilized for factual decision making
• Underutilized eCommerce in expanding the market place
• None-implementation of eProcurement in organization with large processing requirements
After working with numerous companies, we have seen an evident pattern within the procurement organization than can still be improved:
Business Imperative
Procurement is a vital part of an organization that enables conversion of resources to profit. Similar to other profit generating business units, Procurement can create value and improve the bottom line of the company.
Profit; $5.0
Overhead; $5.0
Labor; $10.0
Materials; $30.0
Labor; $10.0
Overhead; $5.0
Profit; $8.0
Materials; $27.0
Three Options to improve bottom line:
• Increase Revenue
• Cut cost – i.e.; Lay Off
• Manage Spend

Notes:
• Current activities are highly clerical and
transactional. Limited involvement on
strategic functions
• It is important to increase value in the
following areas:
• Supply Market Intelligence
• Supplier Prequalification
• Strategic Sourcing
• Contract Management
• Supplier Performance and
Scorecarding
Sample
Procurement : From Transactional to Strategic
• Most of procurement activity is on low value transactions.
• This low-value transactions account to approx 85% of all transactions but contributes only 13% of the total sourceable spend.

HOW?
Managing indirect spend can be tedious and consume resources. Consolidation of these items can reduce resource consumption and achieve a strategic advantage with supplier.
Group Buying
Advantages of this approach are both enjoyed by the buyer and supplier.
Cost reduction due to aggregation –
effective sourcing
Leverage common procurement
infrastructure
Use of independent 3rd party PSP host
Share, build, and apply procurement best

Focus on availability, quality, and service

Procurement Out-Tasking
Procurement Out-tasking and Augmentation
Augmentation
Out-TaskingComplete transfer of activities relating to sourcing and supplier management to a third party serviceprovider
The handover including risk transfer of a non-core (or even core) set of businessprocesses or a complete businessfunction to a third party service provider.
Transfer of certain tasks within a particular business process whilemaintaining control over the strategy and implementation. It helps cut costs without loss of control or high set-up costs.
Sourcing of point solutions which may be manual and relatively low-skilled processes or use specialized resource.
Companies tries Out-tasking before going to full Augmentation..
Small manageable projects Potential large savings More tactical and transitional
Large scale undertaking – program level
More modest, but easily defined andmeasurable savings
Strategic and Semi--permanent
Procurement Augmentation
Outsourced procurement allows enterprises to focus on their core competence as procurement service providers achieve overall improvement in key performance indices and leverage technology more effectively.
