| The
Role of Technology in Strategic Sourcing:
You can't be Asleep at the Switch |
|
Seminar Abstract:
The velocity of strategic sourcing benefits,
new technology and attendant analytic processes
continues to outpace adoption rates as third
parties race to provide new methods and
tools to capture needed cost reduction for
businesses. This seminar explores what is
currently occurring, what is on the event
horizon and what lies beyond. We will discuss
what is needed to stay contemporary with
new e-Sourcing tools, the processes they
impact and the necessary organizational
changes required to propel implementation
efficiency and effectiveness to the new
heights promised.

| Self
Service Strategic Sourcing - Costs, Benefits
and Results |
Seminar
Abstract:
Most sourcing service providers can be divided
into two categories:
full-service solution providers, offering
commodity consulting services with enabling
auction and eRFx technology, and self-service
ASP providers, offering do-it-yourself commodity
work and auction/eRFx technology. There are
opportunity costs with both of these models
that may offset their benefits. Full-service
solutions can be expensive, due to commissions
and long-term consulting contracts. Conversely,
self-service models do not provide the guidance
that many companies need in order to effectively
procure specific commodities, use eRFx tools
and develop auction strategies.
The wave of the e-Sourcing future is the
Just-in-Time Sourcing (JITS)
model, which provides the best of both worlds
by integrating consulting
expertise with do-it-yourself technology
in a more cost-effective solution. Regardless
of where a customer is in the e-Sourcing
process, this hybrid model will lead them
through the path of efficiently negotiating
with vendors, securing reliable supply and
lowering sourcing costs.
Attend this free webinar to learn how costs
and benefits of the JITS model compare to
those of full-service and self-service models.
Our eSourcing consultant will profile an
ideal candidate for the hybrid model and
discuss the results companies expect versus
what they are actually achieving with this
model.
