PROCUREMENT AND
THIRD PARTY MANAGEMENT
(TPM)

Procurement and Third Party Management (TPM) have been significantly disrupted in recent times by the following factors: 

  • Impact
    Inflationary environment

    Procurement response
    Focus on cost management and value (less on savings).

  • Impact
    Challenge to execute business strategy or meet stakeholder expectations as talent shortages, often at senior levels. Reduced capability and capacity arising from “great resignation”, post Brexit, post Covid, and IR35.

    Procurement response
    Consulting support to strengthen and upskill teams, and leverage Procurement workflow technology to accelerate processes.

  • Impact
    More stringent regulatory requirements re supply chain assurance, e.g. PRA SS 2/21.

    Procurement response
    Broadened scope of Procurement functions, providing supplier risk and vulnerability management, particularly in FS.

The above factors present unprecedented challenges and increased expectations on Procurement teams. Alongside this, there are major opportunities for Procurement to integrate closer within their business, modernise, and add more value.
