Procurement reporting that drives results

A NSW State Government client is on a journey to implement a new Enterprise Resource System (ERP). While the new system will enhance the availability and validity of data, our client understands that just reporting on nice-to-know statistics, such as the number of purchase orders raised and the number of suppliers used, doesn’t help much. Grosvenor was able to design three streamlined reports that enable our client to track procurement outcomes across the organisation.
