  • Sourcing Pipeline and Savings Tracking: From Idea to Execution

Sourcing Planned and Savings Tracked

A sourcing pipeline and saving tracker are two perspectives on the same data. Looking into the future, procurement teams can identify and plan savings opportunities and enter them. Later, they can look back and generate reports around realized savings.

Track All Your Projects and Your Progress

Did you know that some procurement teams are run like sales teams? Members have quotas but for savings rather than for new business.

Why do I need a sourcing pipeline?
Planning to run some RFPs this year? How about a few reverse auctions? Phone calls to negotiate updated pricing? Using a sourcing pipeline, you can identify specific categories or contracts to be sourced/updated, a time frame for the activity, the key stakeholders to be involved, and the resources that you need support these projects.
