12. The E-Sourcing “House of Horrors”
Despite having Center-Led sourcing
processes and Centers of Excellence,
technology utilization remains low.
Investments are not well suited to support
your sourcing challenges and strategy.
Technology limitations force users to make
one of two choices:
1. Put constraints on their sourcing project or
strategy, OR…
2. Go back to use of spreadsheets, word
documents, email, etc.
But Wait! There is another way out….

16. Establishing Goals for E-Sourcing
Let’s get back to basics: What do you want to accomplish?
Top Goals for E-Sourcing
More Spend Under Central E-Sourcing
Management
Managing Costs in Volatile Markets
Increasing Efficiency and Productivity
Meeting the Needs of Spend Owners
and Stakeholders
Improving Supplier Relationships and
Innovation
Copyright © 2012. CombineNet, Inc.
17. Missed Goal Ratings
Rotten Pumpkin: The feeling you get when you
put a lot of time and effort into a project, only
to see your work go to waste
Spreadsheet Zombies: An unfortunate and
unhealthy side-effect of spending too much
time staring at spreadsheets in the course of
manipulating, cleansing and analyzing data
Pitchfork-wielding Mobs: Unsatisfied
(sometimes angry and unruly) spend owners
and stakeholders that are ready to set fire to
the sourcing team’s laboratory
Copyright © 2012. CombineNet, Inc.
18. More Spend Under Central Management
Centralize more spends through aggregation of similar spends across
business units and locations for enhanced efficiency, leverage, and
visibility into costs.
Requirements 100s of Items
x Dozens of Locations
Ability to run larger events, = 1,000s of individual Items
with more items across more x Dozens of Suppliers
locations and suppliers = 10,000s of Bids
E-Sourcing Shortcomings Hard Limits on # of Items,
Bids, & Suppliers creates
Severe data and event size limited options on how to
limitations execute

and internal stakeholders for whom you are managing sourcing events
Requirements “Not my spend”

strategies that reflect requirements for the
stakeholder preferences and suppliers that keep my
goals business running”
E-Sourcing Shortcomings “One-size-fits-most” bid
Lacking ability to analyze and analysis and award
