Procurement Strategy & Ops Dashboard

Visually analyze how your organization is placed strategically and operationally, over a given period of time.

注:

This dashboard is available only if you install the Performance Analytics for Sourcing and Procurement Operations application.

You can use the Procurement Strategy & Ops Dashboard to view your organization's strategic performance, which includes year-to-date total spend, spend categorization, total savings, negotiation outcomes, spend by category and supplier, and utilization of active blanket purchase orders. On the operations side, you can view your organization's open sourcing requests, negotiations, expiring contracts, and purchase requisitions and their details. You can filter by cost center or department and select specific elements to view relevant details.

On the SLA side, you can view the basic cycle times for different record types, time taken for each state, comparison of breached versus unbreached records, breached time in comparison with standard SLA time, and team performance in terms of processing records and also the excess time taken for breached records. You can filter the records by task type.

注:

The widgets plot metrics or data from the day the upgrade is taken, as the triggers for collecting metrics are enabled only after the upgrade. So, historical data isn’t available automatically after the upgrade but is accumulated thereafter. Also, if any new case types are introduced in the system and you want to add its metrics to the SLA dashboard, ensure that you update the indicator source.

表 : 2. Components of Procurement Strategy & Ops dashboard

Title	Type	Description
Strategic
Total Spend - YTD	Widget	View the total year-to-date amount across the organization for all standard purchase orders, excluding blanket and closed canceled purchase orders. Only standard purchase orders and purchase order releases are considered.
Spend Categorization - YTD	Pie chart	View the breakdown of the total year-to-date spend across the organization by addressable and non-addressable categories. The total spend is the sum of the total line amount on the purchase order line, excluding blanket purchase orders, where the state of the purchase order isn’t closed canceled, and the spend categorization is either addressable or non-addressable.
Total Savings - YTD	Widget	View the year-to-date sum of the negotiated savings across the organization for all standard purchase orders, excluding blanket and closed canceled purchase orders. Only standard purchase orders and purchase order releases are considered.
Negotiation Outcomes - YTD	Stacked bar chart	View the year-to-date negotiation outcomes across the organization against the negotiation count, grouped by negotiation type. Some of the possible negotiation outcomes are contract renewal, quote, RFx, and so on. Negotiation types can be cost avoidance, standard savings, contract terms negotiations, or unsuccessful negotiations. This report shows negotiation outcomes where the corresponding negotiation state is either Closed Complete or Closed Canceled.
Spend by Category - YTD	List	View the year-to-date committed spend, that is purchase order created, across the organization, grouped by the category associated to the supplier product on the purchase order line.
Total Spend by Supplier - YTD	List	View the total year-to-date amount across the organization for all standard purchase orders, excluding blanket and closed canceled purchase orders, grouped by supplier. Only standard purchase orders and purchase order releases are considered.
Utilization of Active Blanket Purchase Orders	List	View the released or subtotal percentage of the active blanket purchase orders across the organization that are within the end date.
Operations
Open Sourcing Requests	Widget	View the total number of sourcing requests across the organization that aren’t in a closed state.
Open Negotiations	Widget	View the total number of negotiations across the organization that aren’t in a closed state.
Expiring Contracts	Widget	View the total number of contracts, associated to purchase requisitions in any state, across the organization, that has an end date of 90 days out.
Open Sourcing Requests by Due Date	Pie chart	View the breakdown of the count of open sourcing requests across the organization by due date range.
Open Negotiations by Due Date	Pie chart	View the breakdown of the count of open negotiations across the organization by due date range.
Expiring Contracts by End Date	Pie chart	View the breakdown of the count of expiring contracts across the organization by end date range.
Open Purchase Requisitions	Widget	View the total number of purchase requisitions across the organization that aren’t in a closed state.
Aging Purchase Requisitions	Stacked bar chart	View the breakdown of the count of purchase requisitions across the organization by age (that is the number of days since opened) and state.
After-the-Fact (ATF) Purchase Requisitions	Bar with line	View the count and $ value of After-the-Fact (ATF) purchase requisitions. $ value is the value of purchase lines that satisfy the ATF criteria. For example, if there’s one ATF purchase requisition with two lines (purchase requisition line 1 is ATF with line amount $10, and purchase requisition line 2 isn’t ATF with line amount $5), the count of ATF purchase requisitions is 1 and the $ value is $10. Revised ATF purchase requisitions and their values aren’t considered.
SLA
Average time to complete record	Bar with line	View the average cycle time and count for record types such as sourcing request, purchase requisition, negotiation, and cases. While the count is shown on the Y-axis and is represented by the bar, the line represents the time. Fact data for this widget is derived from database views created from metric definitions that track psm_unique_state and active fields of PSM record types.
Average time to complete by state	Stacked bar chart	View the breakup of the time taken in each state of the record. For example, if a sourcing request took three days to complete, then the time taken in each state of the sourcing request like pending review, requires decision, awaiting response, and so on, is displayed here. This widget should be read in conjunction with the previous widget to get an understanding of the average time, and the breakup of this average time into various states. Data for this widget is derived from database views created from metric definitions that track psm_unique_state and active fields of PSM record types.
Breached SLA by record type	Stacked bar chart	View a comparison between the records that were processed within the SLA time versus those that weren't. This gives an idea of the percentage work done that is within the SLA and the percentage that is breaching it. For example, if 100 records were processed in a week and 70 records were processed within the SLA time, then 70% of the work is done within the SLA and 30% is breaching it. Data for this widget is derived from the Task SLA table that is fed by SLA definitions created on the active fields of PSM record types.
Average time vs SLA time of breached records	Time series column	View the actual time taken versus the allotted SLA time. This gives an understanding of the extra time that is taken when compared to the SLA time. Data for this widget is derived from the Task SLA table that is fed by SLA definitions created on the active fields of PSM record types.
Employee performance by record type	Stacked bar chart	View the count of records of types sourcing request, purchase requisition, negotiation, and cases that have been processed by your team. Data for this widget is derived from database views created from metric definitions that track active fields of PSM record types.
Employee performance breaches in durations	Stacked bar chart	View the time taken for the breached records of the team. The Procurement Specialist Manager can not only see the time taken for the breached records, but can also drill down to get the exact duration and the SLA time to get the details of time exceeded by SLA. Data for this widget is derived from the Task SLA table that is fed by SLA definitions created on the active fields of PSM record types.
