17 Let us follow Nicole on her IntelliSource Experience Nicole s Request gets assigned to the right operations team - Tactical - Strategic - Help Desk The assigned team engages Nicole for next steps and Explain Process Agree on timeliness Level set expectations Explain engagement model Agree on outcomes & results Team executes the request Identify suppliers Negotiate Analyse and find the best value Consult & agrees with Nicole Consult & engage with GSP Draft the contract Execute the contract Advise Nicole on next steps GSP is Happy His category is executed based on his strategy His stakeholders are happy He got engaged at the right time at the right level He can concentrate his energy to the right strategic events or strategy development He receives feedback on what s working, not working he can include into his strategy He scaled himself to do more and watch his strategies make stakeholders happy and bring value to NetApp Nicole is Happy She received what she wanted and fast She didn t need to worry who the suppliers are how to negotiate if she s getting the best TCO quality/service/price How to draft a contract Follow all the policies She even saved money on her budget All of these Services provided to her by IntelliSource, she was involved at the right times and decision points and watched all happen very quickly on her behalf NetApp, Inc.

18 IntelliSource So what can go wrong? Nicole wants to buy something Nicole reaches out to get IntelliSource Service help STRONG ROLLOUT INITIATIVE CHANGE MANAGEMENT Who and what is IntelliSource? I don t have time to deal with IntelliSource I d rather buy it myself, I know what I want Savings? I don t need savings I have budget Nicole clearly doesn't understand what IntelliSource is, what it does and what value it brings to her and to NetApp Engagement & Agreement from Leadership Make success of this rollout a co-owned goal Use leadership for traction; align regions, BUs, processes Use Cross Functional Rollout Teams Change Agents Make them part of core team and accountable, act as change agents in their own groups Use cross functional team to give feedback to process, develop ownership Don t Rush Train Soft Launch Take a multi stage, soft launch approach, don t force people, use the opportunity to educate on new process Assess, review adjust, tweak, train again as necessary NetApp, Inc.

19 IntelliSource So what can go wrong? GSS Operations decides on the best solution Catalog Buy Card Buy Quick Buy from preferred suppliers Quick Bid/SOW Competitive Bid, Sourcing Event Contract Negotiation Strategic Sourcing Event There is a clear disconnect between how a GSP wants to execute a category vs Operation Team s understanding GSS Operations works with Nicole to understand what she wants to buy Requirements Timelines Budget Preferences GSS Operations assesses the request Nicole s requirements Complexity Procurement Strategies & Guidelines Policy & Best Practices OPERATIONALIZING A PROCUREMENT STRATEGY IS NOT OUTSOURCING IT Put Your Strategies on Paper Create category cards, category playbooks Use a 80/20 approach, quick short to the point, ask right questions, get right answers & drive decisions Dedicate Time & Train Operational Resources Operational team can only get better when they practice and learn how to interpret the instructions Learn from shortcomings/fails to develop your instructions better Identify operational team leads/experienced resources to cross train/cross execute Assess Competency of Resources Figure out where they fail and take action accordingly Operations didn t even understand what Nicole wants They told her they need to bid it out, where there was already a preferred supplier They spent endless hours with GSP to understand what they need to do Nicole got frustrated on the time lost and what value IntelliSource brings GSP is frustrated that he has to deal with resources that don t understand his category NetApp, Inc.

20 IntelliSource So what can go wrong? Nicole s Request gets assigned to the right operations team - Tactical - Strategic - Help Desk There is a clear gap in Roles & Responsibilities and accountabilities between teams The assigned team engages Nicole for next steps and Explain Process Agree on timeliness Level set expectations Explain engagement model Agree on outcomes & results WE ARE ONE TEAM CHANGE MANAGEMENT STARTS INTERNALLY Team executes the request Identify suppliers Negotiate Analyse and find the best value Consult & agrees with Nicole Consult & engage with GSP Draft the contract Execute the contract Advise Nicole on next steps Nicole is bounced between the teams, every time she needs to explain again what she wants Operations team think GSP is going to engage, GSP thinks operations team, ball gets dropped Everyone starts pointing the finger at each other Nicole doesn t care whose fault it is or understand GSS structure, she wants to get it done. Make Sure Your Procurement Organization Understands the Model and Their Role In It Make them part of the model design, provide feedback and understand the workings If they don t understand and take accountability, it s a fail from the start Define Roles & Responsibilities Clearly Who does what, how interactions work It may be complex in the background but it should work as one team/one process to Nicole Create Transparency and Escalation Chain Transparency between the teams on good, bad and ugly Make a process to get it to the right person to solve right away but also identify root cause and fix long term NetApp, Inc.
