What happens when I finish?

On completion you will receive a functional report. Your report contains an overview of your departmental profile with the objective of evaluating maturity across clearly defined practices or enablers.
It compares your maturity against a standard providing you with a profile of your organisational capability to deliver your required and intended business outcomes. The feedback may support you in planning and prioritising continuous improvement activities, and help you focus attention on the strategies that will enhance the effectiveness of your Procurement function.

What is this assessment based on and how reliable is it?

The source of this assessment is a mix of industry research and well-established procurement maturity frameworks. Taking cross-industry research from around the world, the drivers of the maturity profile consider the procurement function from ‘greenfield’ and ‘founding’ stages through to ‘established’, ‘leading’, ‘impacting’ and what is regarded as best practice.

The content of each question has been considered by both procurement practitioners and consultants in Australia and the United Kingdom to ensure relevance, reliability and validity of the assessment.

What themes are explored in the assessment?

Procurement involves so much more than simply having the right goods and services delivered to the right people at the right place, at the right time and at the right price. Procurement should align to business strategy and with suppliers onside, should deliver competitive advantage. Across the eight procurement bastions listed above there are several drivers investigated – giving you the opportunity to provide an evaluation of each of these drivers in detail.
