A wise man once said Spend Management is a journey not a destination. Achieving sustained year-on-year benefits in your spend management initiative calls for a balancing act across multiple fronts – analytics, sourcing, contracts, suppliers and operational procurement. Your company may have achieved some early returns in sourcing savings or procurement compliance. But how do you keep the momentum going?
In this session, we will explore how a truly integrated source-to-settle process offers a tremendous ROI, with spend analysis driving effective sourcing, well-managed suppliers, and contracts compliantly purchased off of. You’ll learn how a successful journey begins with the vision and a solid business case, and continues through effective deployment of technology and the necessary process change management.

This is further evidenced by statistics that show that Networked Enterprises simply perform better on numerous corporate KPIs. Statistics like 24% Increased revenue, 43% greater market share and 8% higher margins really can’t be disputed in terms of shareholder value, as uncovered by a recent McKinsey report.
enterprises see the benefits that the combination of cloud computing, enterprise apps, and community can bring to their business……and they want to take part in the Networked Economy.CFO Magazine study of 200 global finance executives: View using technologies – like the cloud and business networks – to better discover, connect, and collaborate with their customers, suppliers, banks, and other trading partners was a top priority for agility and growth.CIO Magazine study found IT executives prioritizing investments to improve external collaboration.Research series from Harvard Business School points to inter-enterprise collaboration as THE key competitive competence going forward.
Group Procurement has responsibility for Indirect Procurement operations in all markets.Supported by a global Procurement policy.Supply chain Procurement operates inter –market, main GI spend is in UK. Supply chain - 192 contracts + motor networkKey message: commonality of procurement processes and policy across all markets. Differing levels of maturity but progressing towards consistent adoption.
Generic segmentation model however important to focus resource on the correct areas.Arcs used to eliminate borderline cases.
Slide is somewhat repetition, show for context and how segmentation leads to task frequency and move on.
