An efficient and effective procure to pay process contains processes and buying channels that are designed to “fit” different situations and circumstances encountered by end users of the P2P process . • Buying channel analysis examines requester need, material type, location, transaction cost, supplier, PO count and size ($). • Balances transaction cost, responsiveness, tracking and risk to identify the right channel mix. 

  3. Transaction Cost per Channel NATCO = 0 NATCO = 0 NATCO Currently 48,000 PO / Year Ave Cost: $150 / PO Cost per PO = $10-15 Cost per PO = $40-60 NATCO = 0 NATCO = 100% Cost per PO = $5-10 Cost per PO = $150 plus

  4. Transaction Cost per Channel NATCO = 20% NATCO Currently 48,000 PO / Year Ave Cost: $150 / PO NATCO = 40% Cost per PO = $10-15 Cost per PO = $40-60 NATCO Objective 48,000 PO / Year Ave Cost: $106/ PO NATCO = 30% NATCO = 10% Cost per PO = $5-10 Cost per PO = $150 plus NATCO Savings 48,000 PO / Year 20 man years

  5. Procurement Capacity Benchmarks NATCO Currently 48000 POs per year FTEs on Org Chart = 14 (not including Engineers time) My Estimate – 650 POs per FTE Requiring 74 FTEs to process (Not including AP) Today = 3428 Ouch!

  8. Classification Benchmarks UN/SPSC Code • Universal Standard Product and Service Classification Code. A Global commodity standard - 10 digit, hierarchical code used to consistently classify products and services The UNSPSC is a hierarchical classification with five levels. These levels allow analysis by drilling down or rolling up to analyze expenditures. Each level in the hierarchy has its own unique two-digit code: • An example follows: • Code: 43 20 15 01 14, • Segment: 43, Information Technology Broadcasting and telecommunications • Communications Devices and Accessories. • Family: 20, Components for information technology or broadcasting or telecommunications Computer Equipment and Accessories. • Class: 15, Computers Computer accessories • Commodity: 01 Computer switch boxes Docking stations • Business Function:14, Retail
