Traditional
means of procurement will be characterised by strategy development, supplier
sourcing, selection and evaluation, tendering, contract awarding and ultimately
a transaction and delivery process for the goods or services being procured
and a payment process between you and your supplier.
How does the introduction of technology change
the process?
The real answer is that it doesn’t but what it does do is utilise
the latest internet and systems technologies to make your whole procurement
and supply cycle far more dynamic, transparent, efficient and time responsive.
You are able, through existing and evolving technologies to dispense with
traditional and procurement supply practices. This can be as varied as
using sourcing techniques like thumbing through a Kompass product locator
or carrying out a paper based tender process. Moving to e-tendering and
e-sourcing or to such things as e-enabling the purchase order and payment
cycle fosters the power of technology.
Technology will deliver direct cost savings and process efficiencies and
the answer on what e-procurement and supply is, we hope is now clear.
