Digital Procurement Services
Digital Solutions For Procurement - Overview
In the fast-paced world of business, speed is of the essence. However, the procurement function frequently introduces delays in processes to ensure compliance. This approach poses a risk of losing relevance when compared to other business functions.
At Premier Business Systems, we adopt a service design approach with a focus on user experience to craft digital procurement solutions. Our solutions range from problem-specific proof-of-concept offerings to comprehensive end-to-end digital procurement solutions, striking a balance between compliance and speed.
Key Capabilities
Digital Strategic Planning
We assist businesses in identifying the optimal digital strategy by considering their current digital assets, newly available technologies and capabilities, as well as their overarching business and procurement goals. We prioritize the need for speed and adaptability while offering well-defined strategies for balancing value and risk management.
Designing Solutions
Human-Centered Design for Solution Design Our approach to solution design employs a human-centered design methodology, which involves reimagining the user experience for employees and crafting a solution design that aligns with their behaviors. We integrate this methodology with our deep domain expertise in procurement to address systemic issues from the user's standpoint. This approach, known as an 'inside out' approach, aims to minimize friction, shorten cycle times, boost productivity, mitigate risks, and enhance overall efficiency.
Implementing Solutions
Our team combines its procurement expertise with experience in design, technology services, and operations to drive successful outcomes for businesses. We not only optimize return on investment but also enable and deliver tailored solutions to fulfill the unique requirements of both business and procurement functions
Selecting Systems
We assist businesses in navigating the strategy validation process, ensuring alignment with their vision, existing infrastructure, and specific requirements. Our approach includes future-proofing solutions by pinpointing technology stack gaps, ensuring the acquisition of systems, and optimizing the utilization of digital technology to its fullest potential.
Proof of Concepts (POCs)
We lead businesses through the proof-of-concept phase by identifying and prioritizing the initial key scenarios and use cases that need attention. We typically begin with modest initiatives, gradually expanding design principles and capabilities at the pace chosen by the business. This approach enables a methodical prioritization of end-to-end user journeys.
Data Strategy and Master Data Management (MDM)
Data plays a pivotal role in digital transformation. To stay competitive, seamless communication between systems and external sources is essential. We establish data strategies and governance frameworks that empower businesses to identify the necessary data, determine acquisition methods, and ensure data maintenance, facilitating informed decision-making and streamlining specific processes.
Optimizing Existing Technology
Frequently, procurement technology implementations meet timelines and budgetary constraints but yield underwhelming results. At Premier Business Systems, we go beyond these limitations. By reimagining outdated processes and reconfiguring ineffective systems, we unlock additional value from your existing technology investment. Our approach helps businesses assess whether their current technology can be optimized without the need for additional spending on peripheral technology solutions, allowing for cost savings and improved efficiency.
Analytics Solutions
Irrespective of maturity level, it is essential for the procurement team to possess the appropriate tools and solutions to make informed decisions and respond swiftly in a rapidly evolving environment. We offer the essential structured thinking and tools to facilitate a well-rounded procurement analytics solution. This solution unveils actionable insights, predictions, and recommendations, empowering procurement teams to excel in their decision-making processes.
