Procurement Technology and Transformation Advisory

Buying the software is the easy part.

Procurement technology projects rarely fail on the software. They fail on readiness: data that was never cleaned, processes that were never agreed, and a team that was never brought along. We work between the vendor and the organisation to make sure the business is ready for what it has bought, and gets the value it was promised.

Who this is for

Government agencies and corporates implementing a source to contract, contract management or spend analytics platform

Technology delivery partners and software vendors who need buyer-side expertise on an implementation

Organisations part-way through a rollout that is not delivering what was expected

Executives deciding whether to invest in a platform at all

What you get

Readiness assessment before implementation, covering data, process, governance and capability
Independent input to requirements and vendor selection, with no stake in which platform wins
Change and capability planning, so the team can actually use the system once it lands
Post-implementation review, with a clear picture of what is working and what needs attention
Advisory to vendors and delivery partners on how buyers evaluate, procure and adopt procurement technology

How it works

A 30 minute discussion about where the project sits and what is worrying you.

A written scope and fee proposal for the piece of work that will make the most difference.

Delivery, with findings and recommendations in a form you can take to your steering committee.
