Today’s Painful Reality
The first time you hear about a big purchase
is when you see the invoice.
Purchasing is considered “the enemy” by
your business units.
Best practices are for people with “more
time.”
Cycle time for sourcing projects can be as
long as 6 months.

CONFIDENTIAL
What is Strategic Sourcing?
Strategic sourcing is a disciplined process
which organizations implement to more
effectively purchase materials and
services from suppliers.
The process generates savings by reducing
product and operations costs through
consolidation of purchases, elimination of
duplicate and functionally equivalent
parts, and rationalizing suppliers to the
right number of partners.

CONFIDENTIAL
Why Strategic Sourcing?
Areas of Potential Purchasing Savings
73% of potential purchasing
savings are in sourcing.
• Resulting in savings of 2-4% overall
going right to the bottom line
• Some commodity areas can save more
than 20%

What is e-Sourcing?
Sourcing is the identification, evaluation, negotiation,
and configuration of new products/suppliers.
Typically used for the negotiation of blanket contracts,
strategic goods.
An online sourcing tool that allows buyers and
strategic sourcing specialists to obtain closed bids
(and/or conduct reverse auctions) in a way that:
Gives consistent automated RFx creation,
management and analysis
Increases efficiency by
standardizing work processes
Qualifies new vendors and updates
data/information on existing suppliers

How Internet sourcing can benefit your organization.
Reduction in prices of materials/services (5% - 20%)
• Rapidly establish competitive bidding space
• Access new suppliers
• Expand geographical reach
Shorter procurement cycles (25% to 30%)
• Automate the RFP/RFQ process
• Streamline order-to-pay processes
Reduce administration costs
• Improve buyer productivity
• Reduce/eliminate paper-based processes
Improve ability to create/manage optimal supply
base
• Improved market data
• Minimize demand peaks
21
CONFIDENTIAL
Early “sourcing” solutions focused on dynamic pricing.
Traditional pricing: Prices set by hypothetical
forecasts and cost plans.
Dynamic pricing: Prices established in
real-time by existing market conditions (i.e., actual
supply and demand.)
• From buyer’s point of view = Reverse Auctions
Effective for standard/commodity products
• Oil, gas, electricity, broadband, excess assets, inventories,
etc.
22
CONFIDENTIAL
Business negotiations need to determine the Lowest
Total Cost solution.
The most effective companies will be those that can
establish the most efficient global supply chains at the
lowest TOTAL COST.
• Includes sum cost of price, quality, technical expertise, delivery, etc.
Negotiations and sourcing decisions based on multiple
parameters to deliver the lowest total cost supply chain.
23
CONFIDENTIAL
Key negotiation functionality required for effective
support of true B2B interactions.
Multivariable negotiations
• Negotiations based on multiple parameters beyond just price,
including quality, delivery, warranty, and financial terms.
Multi-stage negotiations
• RFI – RFP – RFQ – Award
Multi-threaded negotiations
• “Back and forth” buyer-supplier interactions
Synchronous supply chain negotiations
• Ensuring purchases are not made without due consideration of
availability/cost of services required to use and deliver these
products
24
CONFIDENTIAL
Selecting an e-Sourcing framework.
Company: large enterprise
•Strategy: purchase a negotiated commerce or e-Sourcing
application.
Company: mid-size
•Strategy: outsource sourcing of particular products to
procurement service provider.
Company: small
•Strategy: leverage dynamic trading platform and supply
network of e-Market/exchange.

CONFIDENTIAL
What is IBM e-business Hosting
e-business hosting includes a full spectrum of services that a customer
may acquire from an external provider to support the deployment and
operation of their business processes and applications on the web.
The service might range from the basic provisioning of secure data
centre facilities, redundant network connectivity and equipment rack
and floor space (co-location), to varying degrees of standard managed
services through to our focus on highly customised solutions
delivering enterprise applications over IP networks.
e-business hosting is comprised of modular service elements that may
be selected by customers at any time in the life of the service
engagement as their hosting needs evolve.
Do more business up front, and secure your future business growth

Advantage in Hosting
Provide your clients with the safest, most secure and
complete application hosting offering
• Enhance your chances of Winning
• Deliver a better service to your client
• Secure the on-going business
Many competitors are experiencing financial
difficulties
• Troubled providers need to raise capital to fund operations
• Downsizing can affect client service
• Too much is at stake to take a chance at being there when "the lights
are turned off"

What does e-Sourcing bring to?

•RFx Creation and Development

•Supplier Qualification / Vendor Management
•Electronic Transmission of Specs, Documents,

Conclusion
73% of the potential cost savings are in sourcing –
yet today, sourcing is done completely manually.
If you’re a large enterprise with a sophisticated
purchasing group, enterprise software is the right
choice.
If you’re choosing enterprise software, you need
a holistic solution that addresses the entire
sourcing process.
