Processes, KPIs and roles

  • One concept for new procurement processes at 3 levels of detail: macro processes, flow charts and annotated work procedures
  • A KPI tree with strategic, tactical and operational levels
  • Job descriptions written and approved for every role in procurement, inventory and master data

Results

A working policy, not a document on a shelf

  • One concept and set of processes for procurement, inventory and master data in place

  • A dashboard for KPIs and key stock parameters, including stock-out events

  • 3 tools that increase automation and reduce human error

  • Optimised stock parameters that raised the service level from 56% to 73% with the same stock
