We surveyed more than 1,000 Australian citizens and found that 64% of citizens expect government investments to improve services while lowering costs. Digital plays a major role in addressing citizen demands and transforming government - and procurement is no exception. To be a part of this transformation, the right strategy is key:
EMPOWERING
PROCUREMENT
Who?
The forward-thinking procurement organisation will drive this reinvention.
What?
Redesign your procurement organisation and achieve greater transparency, accountability and collaboration.
When?
No time like the present. As government and public service delivery methods evolve, procurement's role is even more essential.
Where?
Public agencies will rely on procurement to help improve operations and meet citizen demands.
Why?
The expectations of the digitally connected citizen demand an equally responsive government.
How?
Modern CPOs must be more flexible. A high performance organisation embraces new technologies and talent.
With the future fast approaching, the time to begin is now.
This bold new public procurement organisation will materialise within the next 5 years. Business-as-usual is no longer an option. To be prepared, you’ll need to completely revamp your operations, focusing on:
People
Cultivate and inspire talent.
The new public procurement requires enhanced skills and a more engaging, motivating environment.
Organisation
Adopt agile processes.
CPOs must focus their resources on new structure designs and operating models to deliver high performance.
Emerging Technologies
Refine business operations.
Reduce risk and enable your workforce by adopting intelligent technologies, such as AI, cloud and machine learning.
