ProcureAZ
The State of Arizona’s eProcurement & Sourcing Solution
For AZ Public Entities & Vendors

procurement modernization. At the time, the State:

state agencies
•
Had individual agencies manage purchasing
manually or with agency specific systems
•
Failed to track and analyze spend by vendor
•
Lacked vendor performance history
•
Offered minimal collaboration with local
agencies

Value of the supplier network
• Enabling suppliers is a
team effort
• Technical side is typically
not a core expertise for
most customers
• Suppliers that ‘have done
it before’ enable faster
• eProcurement vendor
needs to stay involved for
best results

– Services are still immature offering.
Bringing the sides together
• It’s Important that
Sellers sell what they
have
Sellers challenge
themselves to grow and
expand their capabilities.
Buyers recognize that
all Sellers don’t have
the same flexibilities,
the same speed to
market, the same
objectives, the same
capabilities.

E-Commerce Pitfalls
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Third party and customer managed systems have lacked the
flexibility to present contract programs accurately.
Average Contract Order Size falls, increasing transits, and negatively
impacting the environment. (Catalog Shopping)
Away from procurement operational costs rise through increased
orders, smaller order size, proliferation of unapproved products.
Catalog pricing uploads are problematic for many systems that have
not planned for their complexity. Causing expensive delays in price
administration and poor procurement administrative decisions.
Discounted Price Structure results in drastically higher overall
product costs. Fixed catalog cost models should be preferred.
Program discounts for volume, proximity, business practices and
other contract enhancements are not typically shown.
No value added programs are typically shown.
Double order entry may be necessary for some customers, once into
their system once into the e-commerce system.
E-commerce Pitfalls
•Contract pricing configuration of contracted service provider must
match contract pricing model or there is a large effort needed to “fit” the
systems together if the environment is not punchout.
•Customer Authentication at the ship to level must be considered for most
vendor systems to seamlessly integrate with third party systems. Unless
location addresses match exactly orders can be missed or miss directed.
Some vendor system reporting capability will also be lost.
•Free form ship-to addresses must be valid physical delivery addresses .
•Address validation requirements on the customer side must be robust to
prevent an employee from easily misdirecting a product shipment.
