MEASURE

MEASURE records the procurement initiatives that generate savings or efficiencies

The Observatory's MEASURE functionality provides an efficiency measurement framework and the supporting online tools to make it easy to capture, collate, analyse and report the savings and efficiencies delivered by the procurement function.

Demonstrate the effectiveness of the procurement function

MEASURE helps you evidence the effectiveness of the procurement function and the benefits it delivers to the organisation.

Create compelling reports for management in less time

Reduce the time and effort in creating compelling and regular 'savings & efficiency' reports for senior management.

Track and quantify delivered savings

MEASURE enables you to track and quantify the savings delivered more easily.

Reduce the administrative burden and eliminate data entry bottle-necks

You can reduce the administration burden by allowing recording to be distributed to those responsible for delivering the saving. This improves the accuracy and completeness.

Flexible and easy to use tools

The MEASURE reporting tools are flexible and easy to use and enable you to quickly generate the charts, graphs, tables and lists that deliver the answers to a wide range of savings related questions.

With MEASURE you can:

  • Demonstrate total values

    The total value of your delivered efficiencies both cashable and non-cashable

    The value of delivered efficiencies as a proportion of your organisation's non-pay spend

    The total value of delivered efficiencies by lead buyer and savings type

    The total value of delivered efficiencies that are the result of price reduction, cost avoidance, added value or other strategies

  • Gain insight

    The proportion of your delivered efficiencies that are annually recurring

    Projects that have delivered the largest efficiencies by project type, project category or department

    The proportion of delivered efficiencies that are the result of collaborative arrangements
