As the economy begins to show signs of recovery, many organizations are now returning their focus to growth which relies on support from the supply base. Innovation is essential to satisfy growth in a sustainable way, to remain competitive and, importantly, maintain cost control
A world class procurement function is one that has a measureable impact on the organisationโs profit and loss and adds real commercial value. Find out how effective use of innovation and smarter working can help you get there.

The Future of Procurement: Is Conventional Procurement Dead?BravoSolution

Merriam Webster defines โconventionalโ as typical, ordinary and the usual. Applying conventional to procurement diminishes the organizational value because it implies procurement is an elementary process to quickly satisfy needs verses seeking opportunities to secure unlimited value.
Read the educational white paper featured below to help gain critical insights on how and why your organization needs to move beyond conventional procurement to the next generation of "unlocked procurement" in order to reap significant value from your procurement processes and supply base.
Capita - Putting innovation at the heart of RPOEmma Mirrington
ย
What is the meaning of innovation in RPO and how can the market become more innovative? New research from Capita seeks to find out what innovation means to resourcing leaders. The research provides an in depth insight on how RPO models can be better configured to realise the benefits from innovation.
Research participants included HR directors and resourcing leaders from large enterprises, with the likes of Arup, BSkyB, The Cooperative Banking Group, Lockheed Martin, TalkTalk, Thales and Virgin Money, among others.
Most of the respondents felt that the sector needed to improve on how it engages with candidates and hiring managers, and improve its capabilities around candidate sourcing. There was a strong sense of a need for research-led RPO, which could help improve conversations with active and passive candidates as well as boost the development of talent pipelines and pools.
Some respondents reflected challenges back on themselves; for instance, respondents linked several shortfalls to their organisationsโ tendency to contract on cost alone, a failure to challenge how resourcing was perceived as a business discipline within their own organisation, and a lack of both focus and investment in workforce planning and talent management.
The Innovation in RPO white paper proves to be an interesting and upfront read. Its frank and honest view of the state of RPO comes with recommendations for driving positive change.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
ย
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
ย
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

DRIVING BUSINESS VALUE THROUGH
PROCUREMENT

This report was prepared using data gained from 6 weeks of intensive research and
interviews with industry leaders.
CANADA
2. The Directorโs Report: Driving Business Value Through Procurement
Canadian Procurement Teams Evolving Into Strategic
Centralized Sourcing Centers
While the effects of the economic downturn of 2008 were
felt in every corner of the globe, its impact on the Canadian
economy was not as pronounced as it was on the economies
of the United States and Western Europe. In the United
States, companies responded to the downturn by rethinking
corporate structures and developing new ways to improve
their bottom lines. One of the primary innovations American
businesses developed was the transformation of procurement
into a strategic, centralized function. Over time, US companies
shifted away from procurement models focused solely on
cost-savings and vendor management in favor of procurement
departments responsible for driving revenue and creating
real business value. It has become increasingly clear that the
procurement department can deliver great value to the bottom
line very rapidly.
Because this innovation was born of necessity, Canadian
companies did not experience the same sense of urgency
to adopt this new paradigm. Canadian companies have
traditionally lacked centralized procurement departments,
leaving many departments and business owners to handle
their own purchasing. This paradigm is changing, however,
and we are seeing a shift in Canada to a more centralized
procurement structure in which all purchasing comes through
the procurement department. Like all organizational shifts, this
has led to some resistance to change. As a result, procurement
teams are now tasked with developing more precise
purchasing knowledge while conveying to business leaders the
value procurement can bring to business as a whole.
Creating a centralized and efficient procurement department
requires lots of capabilities including ERP systems to cut
POs and manage orders, spend analytics tools to get a clear
picture of spend, market intelligence to make informed
decisions, vendor management tools to ensure relationships
with suppliers are well managed, risk management software
to assess and manage the risks associated with sourcing in a
global market place, eProcurement solutions, Pcards for staff
purchasing within a certain threshold, reverse auctions to get
a competitive price in an RFP, and Procure to Pay software to
integrate purchasing with the accounts payables department.
One of the biggest shifts weโre seeing is a move from
transactional vendor relationships to true supplier partnerships.
On both sides of the supplier relationship, parties are looking
to establish true partnerships that will deliver supplier
innovation. True supplier innovation means partnering with
a supplier to reduce cost and add value, such as reducing
product packaging to achieve cost savings and become more
sustainable.
With procurement teams tasked with delivering maximum
business value, simple cost cutting is no longer an adequate
strategy. Instead, procurement departments must begin
thinking more innovatively about creating additional revenue
streams.
From a talent perspective, as procurement teams expand,
junior buyers are entering the ranks, many of whom lack some
of the soft skills and market knowledge necessary to do the
job. Companies in the US and Canada are experiencing a talent
shortage. Additional training is needed to bolster skillsets
and succession planning is becoming a priority as seasoned
procurement professionals prepare to retire.
The ever-changing global marketplace requires procurement to
keep up-to-date with global markets, commodities, news, and
risk. Economic fluctuations contribute to the foreign exchange
rate, which has huge implications for a companyโs decisions
about offshoring or re-shoring. Developing a presence in Asia
presents additional challenges for risk mitigation and quality
assurance. Finally, supply chains are susceptible to a variety of
risks at any moment, from natural disasters to geo-political
tension to conflict. Procurement teams must have contingency
plans in place to ensure the supply chain is not disrupted.
With a variety of important new challenges and opportunities
facing Canadian procurement departments, it is more
important than ever for procurement professionals to exchange
best practices and learn how best in class procurement teams
are performing. ProcureCon Canada is the only forum for
those professionals to make the connections and develop
the knowledge necessary to transform their procurement
departments into centralized profit centers.

โI think the bleeding is over. We still have competitive
pressures, but what Iโm saying is that the industry is in
position to take advantage of the stronger U.S. economy
and the fact that the dollar has depreciated by 10 per
cent is also significant.โ

3. The Procurement Industryโs Top Drivers
1 4
Solving Procurementโs Top Challenges
Now more than ever, procurement
departments have to effectively manage
internal stakeholder relationships and
overcome resistance to change.
As procurement has become a centralized function,
procurement departments have worked to align with other
business units in order to deliver maximum value. This has
meant the consolidation of purchasing responsibilities under
the centralized procurement division, which has had to develop
a deep knowledge of each individual business unit. The
challenge for these centralized procurement divisions will be to
effectively align critical business goals with procurement goals
in order to generate comprehensive business value.
Cost cutting is no longer enough;
procurement divisions must deliver
value and drive revenue through
innovation.
In the shift from transaction-driven to business-driven,
procurement departments must seek out new ways to drive
revenue and deliver greater value to the business. In order
to create greater business value, procurement divisions
are focusing on a variety of competencies and capabilities,
including process automation, integrated solutions, data
analytics, spend analytics, and risk management. The
relationship between procurement departments and suppliers
has evolved into a partnership, rather than a transactional
vendor management approach. This in turn has helped to drive
supplier innovation.
The globalized nature of modern
procurement presents an array of
unique challenges and opportunities.
Shifts in foreign exchange rates can have huge impacts
on a companyโs ability to buy offshore. Rising labor and
energy costs in Asia can affect material pricing and availability.
And changes in government policies like customs procedures,
tariffs, and trade regulations can sway purchasing decisions.
Procurement teams operating in the global marketplace must
keep up-to-date with a myriad of issues in order to make sound
decisions. Global sourcing also presents a huge range of risk,
including natural disasters, inclement weather, and geo-political
crises, among others. Procurement professionals must ensure a
harmonized global procurement structure to maintain quality
and ensure a compliant and efficient supply chain.
Staffing and succession planning
continue to be a challenge.
As procurement departments expand, many are experiencing
staffing challenges. Many teams are seeing a gap in experience,
with junior buyers entering businesses without some of the
skills necessary for success. At the same time, many seasoned
procurement professionals are beginning to look toward
retirement, creating a need for sound succession plans.
Procurement teams are now looking to align with other business
units to understand their needs and map capabilities to ensure
robust staffing that can support a changing environment. Finally,
training must be reexamined to consider what is necessary to aid
career progression and improve staff retention.
Todayโs procurement professionals have been tasked
with creating real business value for their
companies, particularly by driving revenue. The focus
on revenue generation has increased the demand for
automated tools to analyze spend and examine market
intelligence.
The C-suite is looking for procurement to align with
business units to deliver increased value across the
business. This requires procurement professionals to
build relationships with internal stakeholders and
overcome resistance to change.
Staffing is a perennial challenge for procurement
departments. Unfortunately, we are beginning to see
a gap as junior buyers begin their careers and seasoned
procurement professionals look to retirement. The time
is ripe for sound succession planning and strategies to
retain staff.
The industry is experiencing a shift away from
vendor management to supplier relationship
management. In this model, procurement
departments must treat suppliers as true partners to
optimize value and drive innovation, which requires
a more robust approach to supplier relationship
management.
As companies become more global in scope and
in supply chain, procurement must keep up with
a constantly changing market environment. This
includes global supply chain risk management
and offshoring and reshoring strategies.
