Leverage our proven Strategic Procurement Framework for Success
Changing buying behaviours to improve results is notoriously difficult. Without the appropriate operational framework and enterprise support, organisations often fail to establish the change they want. IDDEA’s proprietary Strategic Procurement Framework is a proven approach for the complete procurement and strategic sourcing lifecycle, delivering dramatic cost savings, improving supplier relationships and performance, and optimizing the buying activity for the planet.
Strategic Health Check
How can procurement deliver the maximum strategic impact to your business? Based on your business profile (size, business maturity, your market and your company goals) we help you identify your Procurement Maturity Index, benchmarking your business against world-class procurement. Together we craft a strategic procurement blueprint to close any gaps.
Category Management
Tailored to your business, the IDDEA Category Management service organises your procurement resources to focus on related areas of spend and conduct in-depth market analysis. This multi-dimensional process identifies your most strategic suppliers, reduces risk in your supply chain, and uncovers the most impactful opportunities for cost savings.
Tender
Lifecycle
This is where buying right comes to life. Every step matters: from fit-for-purpose specifications, tender development, RFPs and online auctions, up to when you negotiate the final contract. The IDDEA Tender Lifecycle Playbook keeps you on track to deliver the best outcome.
Performance Optimisation
First you measure, then you improve – or is it the other way around? It actually does not matter, but for procurement to be optimised, we will help you design and manage performance dashboards to monitor realised savings, performance over contract SLAs, stakeholder engagement and supplier innovation.
Governance & Compliance
Not everybody sees it this way initially, but Governance and Compliance is really a driver of both efficiency and effectiveness. We help our customers to design a business rulebook that outlines effective procurement policies to efficiently monitor and measure compliance.
Education Services
To maximise impact from procurement, your team needs the requisite skills mapped to your strategy. IDDEA can assess current capabilities, (strategy, category management, tender lifecycle management, and performance optimisation) and deliver a customised learning path to bridge skill or capability gaps. With our partner Universities we can deliver certified degree level programs if desired.
