Procurement Transformation

Elevate procurement performance with an optimized target operating model

Elevate procurement into a sleek, efficient profit center

Procurement teams often face challenges with inconsistent processes, missed savings targets, and underused technologies. Genpact helps design a robust target operating model (TOM) with a solid structure, skilled staff, streamlined processes, and the right technology. We lay the foundation for standardization, increased productivity, and procurement cost savings.

Streamline operations by reducing process variations and handoffs.

Step 1: A comprehensive view of the current state

Our external perspective helps organizations see procurement through a new lens. In an engagement lasting 8 to 14 weeks, we benchmark against industry leaders and create a heat map of key challenges. By analyzing existing process maps and volumetric data, we identify inefficiencies, handoffs, and process variations across sites. We build stakeholder engagement to gain a comprehensive understanding of the current state.

Step 2: Design thinking takes center stage

Next, we conduct procurement-wide design-thinking workshops to outline the goals and steps toward achieving a target operating model geared to your specific business needs and to anticipate potential roadblocks. We assess your existing technology to identify what works, explore upgrades, and recommend streamlined automation or simpler procedures to optimize usage and tech adoption.

Step 3: Develop a future state operating model

Finally, we assess how well your procurement operating model supports business objectives and if you have the right structure, resources, skills, and incentives to become a strategic partner. By asking key questions, we guide you toward long-term business planning and execution. The result? A transformation roadmap with recommendations for short-, medium-, and long-term improvements, along with a business case for a procurement operating model change.
