Aged Tenders No emphasis on the age of tenders, no age targets, no visibility to age
We report weekly on aged tender progress, with a target of a 50% reduction in tenders over 1 yr age. Monthly reporting to MDs
Expired Agreement No visibility to contract expiry, managed on reactive basis as the business realised contracts had expired
Interim manual reporting established, all expiring contracts evaluated and renewal work kicks off where required
PO Compliance No visibility to the portion of POs below $100k that complied with Procurement policy
Regular audit has kicked off to drive the right behaviour and educate
Tender Communication Each Cat Mgr running a disparate process, with different communications, folder format etc. Difficult to arrange cover during absences

A new buying framework was defined that introduced compliance, made buying easier and provided
category specific flexibility
We introduced a process that would make purchasing easier for goods and services that were on contract.
Start at our Portal Search & Select the Product &
Populate request Form
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3
POP places order in SAP
We now show our contracted products through a search and select engine. Easy for the user and
enables powerful spend reporting.
Based on the analysis of 46,000 PO’s from Jan 2011 to Dec 2011 we expected ~60% to flow through this
process. Remaining volumes will be through one of the 3 Alternate PR processes.

Reporting largely a manual and time-
consuming task
Limited contract reporting available and no
alerts for contract renewal
Purchases not linked to contracts – not
possible to track contract spend

technology led. The focus was on business benefits (compliance, savings, user experience,
simplification) rather than technology.

Understanding our Spend
All the work behind the scenes that has gone into
converting our process into a standardise system based
process .
This allows for new and exciting reporting and analytics.
Ensuring we can help the wider business meet it’s
strategic goals.
A standardised Taxonomy for
materials, whether contracted or
not, will allow a greater level of
reporting by Material Spend.
Linking that spend and materials
with Contracts provide and even
greater level of spend analytics.

Total tenders has fallen from 86 in Feb 2011
to ~30 in June 2012. The aging profile has
also improved dramatically.
‘Tenders in progress’ has fallen due to an
improvement in median time
from 187 to 95 calendar days…
…and because we’re cancelling or pipelining
tenders earlier.
