Opportunity 

1. Cost savings: Implementing collaborative supplier management can realise savings when leveraged strategies have dried up.
2. Reduced admin. Supplier management portals ensure that every transaction is optimised.
3. Long term savings. Optimising the internal supply chain function drives long-term benefits.

Where next after sourcing?
Taking procurement to the next stage involves a shift in focus from price to cost. The model below shows the evolution of procurement control over time. As a default, supplier’s costs vary according to their input costs and without professional management, supplier’s prices creep up with time. Once professional procurement becomes established the tactical techniques above work on that margin and bring prices back down. But what next? Where do you go when these categories have been “sourced to death”?
