1 Procurement s contribution to major project delivery Robert Pease, The Faculty CIPSA Major Projects Forum, 1 June 2011

2 Agenda The business case for Procurement s involvement The challenge of managing major projects? Contrasting the Operational and Project Procurement environments Value defined The Project lifecycle- definition and value drivers over the project lifecycle Opportunities for applying a category management approach in a project environment Case study 2

3 The business case for procurement s involvement As 50% to 70% of a typical projects budget is externally spent, Project success is critically dependent upon external supply 3

4 The chequered history of major projects

6 Why do major projects blow out? Specifications and scope of work not adequately detailed Thin business cases pass with too little scrutiny and fails to adequately consider contracting and sourcing strategy and life cycle operational costs Timeframes are unrealistic and poorly understood Up front cost benefit analysis work doesn t take into account the realities of the supply market Management of resources is uncoordinated Assumptions are made and treated as fact Murphy s Law The unexpected always turns up

14 Contrasting Operational versus Project Procurement Repeatable Operational Procurement Procurement is a key stakeholder Cost reduction Focus is continuous improvement and Supplier Relationship Management One- off Project Procurement Project Manager is the key stakeholder Delivery in- full, on- time and on- budget Focus is transactional sourcing and Supplier Risk Management

15 The operational procurement process Also known as Category Management

16 The operational procurement process Also known as Category Management Category Management Develop category spend profile Identify stakeholders & business drivers Analyse supply markets Develop category strategy Implement Strategy Continuous Improvement

17 The operational procurement process Also known as Category Management Category Management Develop category spend profile Identify stakeholders & business drivers Analyse supply markets Develop category strategy Implement Strategy Continuous Improvement Focus is on: Stakeholder engagement Supply market analysis Continuous Improvement Value drivers: Cost reduction Supply Continuity Innovation

32 Applying a Category Management approach Four ways to apply a Category Management approach:

33 Applying a Category Management approach Four ways to apply a Category Management approach: 1. Get upstream to anticipate problems and increase procurement input into the specification and the scope of work.

34 Applying a Category Management approach Four ways to apply a Category Management approach: 1. Get upstream to anticipate problems and increase procurement input into the specification and the scope of work. 2. Develop innovative sourcing strategies that are aligned with supply market trends and serve to minimise risk and drive operational outcomes.

35 Applying a Category Management approach Four ways to apply a Category Management approach: 1. Get upstream to anticipate problems and increase procurement input into the specification and the scope of work. 2. Develop innovative sourcing strategies that are aligned with supply market trends and serve to minimise risk and drive operational outcomes. 3. Package up common spend items into pre- negotiated supply arrangements to deliver cost and administrative efficiencies, facilitate speed of purchasing and minimise risk.

Package up common spend items into pre- negotiated supply arrangements to deliver cost and administrative efficiencies, facilitate speed of purchasing and minimise risk. 4. Improve quality of relationships with suppliers to be more resilient and responsive to unexpected events

Getting Upstream - Impact of Change: The Buyer Supplier Power Balance High Buyer Power Cost of Change Low Planning Contract Signed Delivery Final Acceptance Payment Operation End of Contract Term Get upstream to influence the specification and ensure alignment with current procurement processes and operational requirements

41 2. Developing innovative sourcing and contracting strategies - Improve speed to market, minimise risk, retain knowledge. Look beyond a default tender strategy for all work packages Align contracting strategies with supply market trends and opportunities: Project $ Volume Transactional Strategic Critical Risk

45 3. Packaging common spend items - Improve efficiencies, drive speed and minimise risk Projects are often unique but is all of the spend unique? Look across your organisations portfolio of projects to identify common areas of spend and implement pre- negotiated contracts For example: Mechanical / Electrical / Civil Services and Consumables Environmental / Safety Services Design Services

Look across your organisations portfolio of projects to identify common areas of spend and implement pre- negotiated contracts For example: Mechanical / Electrical / Civil Services and Consumables Environmental / Safety Services Design Services

47 4. Apply an SRM approach to the most strategic suppliers - Robust relationships will help to mitigate risk and manage surprise events Work to build trust and transparency in strategic supply relationships Improve the suppliers understanding of your sourcing process and critical supply requirements Eg; acceptance testing and documentation requirements Gain supplier input at the scope stage to validate assumptions and cost estimates Leverage the procurement capability of your suppliers particularly in design and construct environments Bring key suppliers onto your project team 15
