In a constantly changing world, the variable components of managing a global enterprise, keep getting more complex. The inevitable digitisation of the workplace and processes, with an increasingly distributed and remote workforce, has only added to the complexity. Consolidation and standardisation of sourcing and partner management can tie all of these components together, seamlessly, to provide the impetus required to achieve business-critical goals and objectives.
Thus, strategically managing globally dispersed partners and contracts for procurement of IT assets and devices can make a world of difference to the risk management, efficiency and cost optimisation for an organisation. Replacing traditional procurement models with strategic sourcing and supplier management strategies can prevent up to 20% of Annual Contract Value erosion1 and result in tangible cost savings of up to 10%1.

Secure Contract Value and Prevent Leakage
Centralised obligations & risk management enable proactive risk mitigation by monitoring risk and compliance-related obligations (operational, legal or regulatory requirement) during the entire contract lifecycle, thus ensuring compliance with the organisation’s objectives and approval protocols. This includes performance reporting against contracted milestones and deliverables, monitoring of payments and penalties linked to obligation fulfilment, and policy and regulatory requirements, thus, plugging value leakage.
Increase Efficiencies and Savings
Integrated automation and reporting of the ‘Procure to Pay’ & ‘Source to Pay’ processes eliminates the need for manual intervention, thus, reducing human error. Catalogue/rate card integration increases transparency, while reporting and analytics, and automated contract renewal notifications to avoid penalties late renewal or extension, maximise uptime and ensure business continuity.
Knowledge Retention
Centralised repository eases access to data, boosts relevance and accuracy by enabling benchmarking and provides insights based on executed contracts, while drafting and negotiating new ones.
Proactive Service Level Management
Proactive buyer-supplier collaboration and management via Partner Scorecard help manage partner performance objectively and acts as documentation for any future dispute management. Tracking performance against contractually obligated outcomes ensures adherence to SLAs and governance.
A planned and structured approach to contract management can rake in substantial savings for procurement leaders. Proactive risk identification, mitigation and close looping the process with due diligence can help preserve the annual contract value up to 10%1.
Total IT Global designs digital workflows and manages partner scorecards to create an objective approach to contract lifecycle management that directly results in informed decisions, improved efficiencies and faster time to execute.
