Hello friends, As you all know we hosted a Community of Practice event in Bangalore on 10th June, in association with WIPRO. It was a very informative and interactive session. The discussion was about Procurement 4.0, Journey towards Excellence. We have been getting many requests from the people who were unable to attend the event to share some materials with them so that they know what the discussion was about.

about the future
• Good news is that the theory that
explains the past can-if used
properly-provide insight into the
future.
• The seeds of seeing what’s next were
sown a decade ago with the
publication of first article describing
the phenomenon of distruptive
innovation

7. A World of Change
“We stand on the brink of a technological
revolution that will fundamentally alter the way
we live, work, and relate to one another. In its
scale, scope, and complexity, the transformation
will be unlike anything humankind has
experienced before.”
Klaus Schwab,
Founder and Executive Chairman
World Economic Forum January 2016

10. INDUSTRY 4.0
• Some call it “digitalization,” some call it “Smart
Manufacturing,” and others call it “the next industrial
revolution” or “Industry 4.0.”
• Whatever term you use, a combination of new
technologies — from big data analytics to 3D printing
— is revolutionizing companies’ processes.
• The fourth industrial revolution does not only affect the
production (Smart Manufacturing / Factory) and
logistics (Logistics 4.0), but equally all other functional
areas of a company, in particular the procurement.

12. Change Drivers
• Decreasing levels of in-house value-add.
• Increasing speed of market and technological changes.
• In the digital world procurement will increase its corporate
value as an innovation “catalyst” by linking essential external
knowledge and competencies with internal business partners
to ensure technology and market leadership of the own
enterprise, despite decreasing in-house value-add and related
know-how.
• To help procurement functions, Framework consisting of seven
components, which will enable procurement to generate
value, drive supplier-enabled innovation and manage more
and more complex supply chains in real time
“Transforming procurement into an agile,
linked innovation leader and catalyst”

15. DISRUPTION
• The C-word i.e. Complacency is the dirtiest word in business
jargon.
• Disruptive Leadership is the front line defence against
complacency.
15

16. Procurement in the Future
• The traditional role of procurement, like it or not is fast
being confined to history.
• Procurement professionals operate in an intensely
complex business landscape dominated by legal
compliance, sustainability, and ethical issues which
impact not only their commercial activities, but also
their brand in a very public business and social world.
• Today the focus of business in terms of procurement
and supply management is increasingly placing the
emphasis on the supply aspect.

21. Are You Ready for this revolution?
➢ Companies need to consider the way digital innovation will
disrupt not only the way their organizations work today,
but the entire value proposition of procurement to their
suppliers, customers, and internal process partners.
➢ The new framework (21st Century Approach) will require:
• New procurement value proposition
• Digital category and service procurement
• Digital supply chain and supplier management
• Innovative procurement data utilization
• Digital processes and tools
• Organization and capabilities

The Evolving Procurement Role

25. Impact of Digitization
• Operative procurement will become
autonomous in most areas.
• Role of strategic procurement will grow.
• Traditional purchasers will be a thing of the
past.
• Personal relationships will also continue to be
extremely important in Procurement 4.O.
• The changes will take place in all relevant
dimensions: technologies and systems;
organisation and processes; management and
people; and also business models.
25

26. Impact of Digitization
• Big Data and data processing technologies will be key in
digitalisation.
• Procurement will need to adapt its own structures and
processes to suit digitalisation.
• Procurement will need to manage a procurement portfolio
that has been partially modified and is becoming
increasingly digitalised.
• Vertical and horizontal networking (by means of
technologies) will facilitate the transformation from a
functional perspective to a process-based perspective.
• Procurement will be a driving force behind horizontal
networking.
26

27. Interface with Suppliers
• The procurement division, as the primary owner of the
supplier interface, can keep — and even increase —
its distinctive value proposition within the company by
seizing some of these new opportunities.
• It can create new business models for itself and move
from being a cost center to a profit center.
• Procurement possesses strategic know-how about
suppliers and their markets and a deep expertise about
the goods and services that are procured, as well as the
alternatives on offer, including emerging innovations.
All of this knowledge represents an asset that is gaining
tremendous value in today’s market.
27

28. IMPACT OF PROCUREMENT 4.O
• The introduction of Procurement 4.0 will mean
developing new value propositions, meeting new
business needs, and integrating data across
functions and value chains.
• It will call for using this data proactively and
intelligently, while introducing digital processes
and tools.
• Perhaps most important, it will require
fundamentally reshaping the procurement
organization and its capabilities to take on the
challenges and opportunities of the expanding
global digital revolution.
28

29. Roadmap for Change
Knowledge and insight exist inside your infrastructure; it’s just
waiting to be found. By securely breaking down information
barriers you can understand and learn how everyone in the
company uses their time and help maximize the impact of our
workforce. Take these steps: :
▪ Upskill the Team: Establish expectations of sourcing,
procurement and vendor management.
• Bridge the Transition/Digitization: Anything that is
repeatable or can be defined by rules can ultimately be
automated, and it will increasingly become cost prohibitive
to focus expensive talent on these tasks.
• Stakeholder Relationship Management:
• Focus on digitization, innovation and the ability to respond
rapidly to changing market conditions
• Change KPIs (Operational Measurement to Organizational
Transformation)
29

30. Conclusion
• In short, the digital revolution is creating a whole
new paradigm for what used to be the
Procurement & Supply Chain.
• It was once about delivering the right quality at
the lowest cost, with the agreed service level;
now it is about increasing sales, creating more
value and capturing it.
• In today’s "smart everything" era, successful
procurement and sourcing solutions must offer
seamless usability, end-to-end collaboration, and
cost-saving efficiencies
