PTM Value Drivers & Scope


P rocurement
T echnology
PTM Value Drivers
M odernization

Current State PTM Vision

Multiple registers, rosters & points of entry for suppliers


Provide Self-Service single point of access
Data difficult to maintain current

Laborious and paper-based process Fully electronic solicitation process

70% fail rate with Online Vendor Registration


Simplify Supplier Registration Process, including ESJ
Lack of up-to-date data on supplier qualifications

Data from paper-based process not readily discoverable Transparent online storage will reduce PDRs

Manual processes lack efficiency and transparency Streamline procurement processes and create transparency

Disparate data sources hinder analytics Increase efficiency for analysis and reporting

Legacy un-integrated systems are outdated Replace legacy systems with well-integrated cloud apps

Cloud Solution Best Practices
M odernization

• Safest technology with full E2E encryption and built-in security features
Modern and Reliable • Ample networking will be provisioned to ensure near-real-time performance

• Best practices incorporated in cloud application business models


Solution Driven Approach • Highly configurable, but …. not-customizable
• Solution-driven implementation vs. old requirements-driven approach

• Implement only update/upgrade-safe extensions (if any at all)


Embrace Rolling Updates • Evolve / change business processes to fit configurable out-of-box functionality

Reporting / Analytics • Rich online and context-based pre-built analytics inside cloud applications
• Integration w/other data sets for holistic reporting will be part of Design Phase
Paradigm shift
• Increased P&P user abilities to administer the solution, reducing reliance on IT
Empowered End Users • Better source data  better intelligence and insights
