First, give conclusions that can be used for decision-making
The first phase allows SPM to manage access, request and deliver synergies, synchronize the confirmed suppliers, prices and orders with ERP and maintain consistency through uniform numbers and reconciliations.
What conditions need to be identified before judgement is made?
The same question may have different answers under different business, data and project phases. It is suggested that the following conditions be checked and that the common findings on the web be incorporated into their own projects.
Suggested order of advance
First, we'll be clear about the target and the border.
HF tasks performed outside the system by statistical procurement staff.
Validation Key Dependence
Check the existing ERP capabilities and the range of configurations.
Development of assessable outcomes
Select the first closed loop in access, request for quotations or delivery synergies.
Make sure you decide the next step with the real results.
Validation of ERP synchronization and vendor adoption before expansion.
How do you understand it in the actual business?
The purchase orders are managed in ERP, but the request for quotations is made by group chats, online qualifications, and telephone calls. The SPM can carry external synergies and write back the ERP order status to avoid double-checking financial accounting.
The easiest pit to step on.
Rebuilding an ERP for the procurement portal
SRM and ERP create formal purchase orders
Ignore vendor training and external account support
How should we end up receiving and confirming?
Acceptance and inspection should select the true supplier to complete access, request for quotations, order confirmation, delivery, quality and reconciliation, check ERP data consistency, competency audit and compensation for anomalies.
When preparing to communicate with suppliers or internal teams, it is recommended that current processes, representative samples, existing systems, planning time and budget levels be brought. First, the unknown items are clearly marked, and then the decision is made to use diagnostics, PoC, fixed-range projects or ongoing research and development, which is usually more reliable than a direct demand for a price and duration without borders.
