Question 1

Mohammed has recently been hired as the new CEO of ABC Ltd, a large manufacturing organisation. The organisation has struggled in recent years due to the highly competitive nature of the marketplace and Mohammed has been brought in to radically change the organisation’s approach to procurement and supply chain management.

Traditionally the organisation has dictated its requirements to suppliers with stringent penalty clauses for non-compliance. Mohammed is keen to change this approach and leverage the knowledge of suppliers to ABC’s advantage.

He wishes the relationship to be win-win and wishes to share ideas on potential efficiencies that can be gained for both organisations. He will propose a new mechanism for monitoring the performance of the contract based on four key parameters; cost, customer satisfaction, innovation and operational processes.

XYZ provides raw materials such as iron and steel and Mohammed is keen to gain an understanding of the environmental impact of the extraction, transportation and usage of these materials, the findings of which will impact the company’s mission statement, which will be re-written next year.

In terms of other suppliers, where spend is minimal and risk is low, Mohammed plans to introduce Standard Operating Procedures for the procurement of supplies and is looking into various tools which will save the procurement team time and money.
