Reference:E07
 
Title (unofficial):Efficiency savings through e-procurement
 
Category:05. e-Procurement
 
Suggested Sponsor(s):Head of Finance
 
ODPM desc:Agreed targets for efficiency savings by December 2005, including the % of undisputed invoices paid in 30 days (BVPI 8).
 
IDeA guidance:This outcome is a voluntary one agreed by high performing councils as part of the IEG3 grant claim process.

To fulfil the requirements of this outcome, councils will need to establish a tracking system in Finance and areas of purchasing activity.

They will then need to develop baseline measures for:

• The current cost of their procurement administration
• The amount spent on key goods and services
• The number of transactions of different types that they currently handle

They will then need to analyse what efficiency savings can be achieved, either through process improvement or by reducing prices, as a result of implementing e-procurement solutions.

They should then agree and set targets for savings, putting in place procedures and systems for monitoring progress against target, including tracking mechanisms in their procurement and financial management functions.
