Read moreOur Procurement Transformation service helps unlock the value of the procurement process, generating significant cost reduction and improving supply chain effectiveness.
Achieving this requires a clear vision for procurement and a structured plan for delivering the benefits. Good expenditure information across the whole of the organisation is critical and should be at the heart of all procurement decisions. In addition, for the vision and plan to succeed there must be buy-in across all departments with a broad range of employees and suppliers participating in the planning process. Short-term savings should be balanced with the long-term benefits that can be derived from agreed strategies for the procurement of categories of goods and services and good, long-term supplier relationships
In the UK alone, we have over 60 specialists delivering best practice� for our clients in the following key areas:
- Procurement strategy and planning;
- Strategic sourcing;
- Organisation design and change management;
- e-Procurement and e-Sourcing;
- Contract and project management;
- Supplier relationship management;
- Benefits tracking.
Capgemini’s approach to the delivery of procurement benefits combines vision, planning and execution. We recognise that some organisations seek to transform the entire procurement process whilst others seek to address specific needs and our approach has succeeded in both cases. We have an excellent track record of working with clients to accelerate the delivery of benefits by re-designing purchase-to-pay processes, making best use of technology and buying goods and services more effectively, at the same time building the organisation structure, culture and capability necessary to deliver sustainable benefits in the long-term.
In addition, Capgemini’s leading approach to Supplier Relationship Management has revolutionised the way that our clients work collaboratively with their suppliers to increase real tangible value throughout their supply chains.
Our Procurement Transformation team is an integral part of our Supply Chain Management practice, which includes procurement, planning, logistics and operations professionals and strong working relationships with technology partners. This capability has been used extensively to deliver successful end-to-end solutions enabling improvements in transaction processes (through ERP systems and e-Procurement) and strategic sourcing (through eRFx, Expenditure Analysis and Contract Management).
