To understand if it’s worth to take your Procurement to the next level of maturity, consider the following questions:

  • Are processes standard across business locations?
  • Do policies and governance drive compliance to strategic suppliers and contracts?
  • Can you tie the value from your sourcing activities back to the bottom line?
  • Do you use technology to drive process automation and standardization?
  • Do you have older, legacy systems that have been highly customized and are difficult to maintain?
  • Do you have a high number of manual, invoice-only transactions?
  • Are you processing a high volume of low value invoices?
  • Does your data have the right level of granularity and accuracy at the source to provide reliable metrics to measure operational performance?
  • Are your vendor and material masters reliable?
