Best Practices
Purchasing Services is partnering with an external supply chain industry partner
to pursue procure-to-pay
process enhancements and to implement industry acknowledged supply chain best
practices.
The Procurement Strategy
Council (PSC), an organization that provides best practice research and executive
education to senior supply management executives at leading global corporations, is
the Supply Management group's supply chain best practices
business partner.
Guided continuously by member feedback, the mission of the Procurement Strategy
Council is to increase the effectiveness of executives and their enterprises by
identifying and communicating the best strategies in the procurement arena. The
partnership with the Procurement Strategy Council will help the Supply Management
business partners deliver significant benefits to their key stakeholders: senior
management, customers, and strategic suppliers. The best way to deliver these
benefits is through world class supply and fulfillment performance. The Supply
Management group strives to be best-in-class in higher education and competitive
with the highest performing supply and fulfillment organizations in private industry.
The challenge is determining with a high degree of certainty what steps to take to
achieve that performance, where to invest resources, and how to measure results.
The rollout of new best practice initiatives in partnership with the Procurement
Strategy Council will begin in the 1st quarter of fiscal year 2009. Please direct
questions regarding the supply chain best practices initiative to
Ralph Maier, Chief Procurement Officer.
