Notes de l'éditeur
In today’s ultra-competitive environment, companies are looking for every possible way to improve their bottom line. A relatively new discipline—spend management—promises to deliver significant savings by enabling companies to gain control and manage their enterprise spending on an ongoing basis SGA aka Services aka Indirect …very little focus Lots of untapped opportunities Usually “procured” by non procurement specialists
Issues faced by CEOS/ CFOs,Procurement Professionals = $$$ Cost Savings, Productivity, Profitability / Bottomline , Increase Stakeholders wealth The average indirect spend for a Fortune500-size company, excluding service companies, is 50 percent of the total spend. The percentage of indirect spend varies by industry, from a low of 35 percent to a high of 60 percent (see Figure 1). As companies continue to outsource non-core capabilities and bundle services with their products, the delineation between direct and indirect spend is becoming blurred. For example, if a computer manufacturer also offers consulting services, should consultant travel be classified as a direct or an indirect spend item? Controlling spend that is difficult to identify, quantify, and assign to particular users is challenging for all companies. Good eg : HP , IBM
The spend management discipline can be described as an iterative three-step Find-Get-Keep savings process. As illustrated in Figure 1, and discussed in more detail below, each step includes key activities and enablers relevant to specifi c spend management objectives. Find Savings: Companies begin the spend management process by gaining an understanding of current expenditures. After gathering data from a variety of internal business systems, they then normalize and cleanse it, and fi nish by classifying all expenditures into categories. Get Savings: After identifying top spending categories, companies analyze the information to understand which categories have the highest potential for savings, and how they can best leverage sourcing. Organizations then pursue sourcing activities such as rationalizing their supplier base and negotiating more favorable terms—resulting in savings per category of 10-to-30%. Keep Savings: Once optimized sourcing agreements are in place, organizations need to ensure that both the buyers’ employees and suppliers can easily access and use them. Employees need to know about and use the agreements, and suppliers need to supply goods and service
Establish and develop effective spend analyses reporting : By Categories, By Business Groups by region/locations
Lack of understanding of spending. Often, spend data isn’t captured and classified in a way that makes it easy to analyze. Lack of resources. All organizations are being asked to do more with less, so they don’t have adequate resources for every program. Poor compliance with existing corporate agreements. Although purchasing departments create master agreements with suppliers to maximize savings, up to half of the purchasing within a given organization typically bypasses these mechanisms. High cost of spend management software solutions. Enterprise software solutions require large upfront financial commitments—significantly increasing total cost of ownership. Hurdles to supplier enablement. The number one failure of e-procurement systems is under-estimating the cost and effort to get suppliers’ catalogs into the system and keeping them updated. Lengthy implementation timeframes. Implementation cycles for technology-focused projects can take more than 12-18 months before they begin producing results

No curb in spend Phase II : SURVIVAL mode … PRIORITY No 1 … return to financial profitability … embark on Spend Mgt program … the ISR program … very painful but much needed !!
Stress : GLOBAL INFRASTRUCTURE umbrella … SHARED Services
ISR Program : Survivial Mode … TOP DOWN .. CEO / COO led initiative … across all business and functional groups .. All hands on DECK !!!
Using the simple three step approach to illustrate : Step 1 .. Establish good understanding of our spend patterns using spend analysis reports for identified wrt to key business drivers
SET … Initial “high aspirations” target ranges
Work thru all categories across all business groups
Step 2 : Implement Spend Mgt strategies .. Internal and External across all business … track spend sucessess
Step 3 : “Keep” Savings .. Focus on “PLUGGING” process leaks Reduce “maverick spend” .. Unauthorsied spend Implement compliance process .. Set compliance targets Establish WIN WIN strategic alliance ..relationship program with Key suppliers
VERY Recent 2004 Hackett benchmarking … shows that we have outperformed world class and 1 st quartile comparisons wrt to cost avoidance and cost reduction thru spend management program
