  1. 5 Steps to Communicating the Value of Procurement Presented by: Brian Smith, CPPO, PMP – Multnomah County Gerald Jelusich, CPPB -- Multnomah County Jonathan White – Spikes Cavell

  2. The Challenge

  3. The Context

  4. Getting Started

  5. STEP ONE STEP TWO STEP THREE STEP FOUR STEP FIVE

  6. STEP ONE Create a Definitions file. STEP ONE

  7. STEP ONE • Savings, Gains, Efficiencies, Delta or something else? • Cash Releasing or Non-Cash Releasing? • Added Value, Cost Avoidance, Sustainable Procurement, Process Re-Engineering, Price Reduction, Risk Reduction, Revenue Generation. STEP ONE

  8. STEP TWO Create a standard data collection and tracking process. STEP TWO

  9. STEP THREE Select at least one report each month to review. STEP THREE

  10. STEP FOUR Identify candidates for documenting savings. STEP FOUR

  11. QUESTIONS?

  12. STEP FIVE Choose candidates for savings. (Examples) STEP FIVE

  13. STEP FIVE • Examples • Simplest is the Invitation To Bid (ITB) • Compare low bid price against average of non- • awarded bidders – adopted practice • Don’t include non-Responsive Bidders – adopted practice • Use one efficiency to capture savings – adopted practice • Projects take savings over life of project in equal • increments – adopted practice • Don’t include Engineer’s Estimate - adopted practice

  14. GETTING STARTED – STEP FIVE – ITB Sample

  15. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 – ITB Value Added

  16. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 - ITB • Sample Cost Releasing Savings for this Bid: • Total of four non-awarded bids / 4 = Average Bid • Average Bid – Low Bid = Savings • Total of four bids = $2,068,503.00 • Divided by four = $ 517,125.75 • $517,125.75 – $483,475.00 = $ 33,650.75 • Savings was spread out over 8 months = $4,206/mo

  17. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 – RFPs • Request For Proposals • Best Value selection does not lend itself to finding • Cash releasing instances – often you don’t • select the lowest offer • More likely to find non-cash releasing savings • Example of one that did yield savings

  18. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 – RFP

  19. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 – RFP Cont

  20. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 – RFP Cont • Winning Proposer resulted in savings of $17,574 • Calculation works like a bid • Spread savings over three month study -- • $5858/Month

  21. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 - RFPQs • Request For Programmatic Qualifications - RFPQ • Similar to a RFP • Create qualified “Pools” of vendors • RFPQs do not carry any dollars – no • promise of a contract • Follow-on Allocation process

  22. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 – RFPQ Cont • RFPQs are problematic • Most get recorded without any savings • Non–Cash Releasing Efficiency Example • RFPQ featuring a savings through changes • to our process.

  23. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 - RFPQ

  24. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 – RFPQ Cont

  25. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 – RFPQ Cont • Non-Cash Releasing Value Calculation: • Typical Experience: 1 proposal per hour • 7 Proposals x 4 Evaluators x $30/hour/Evaluator • 7 x 4 x $30 = $840 in expected evaluation costs • Actual cost was one hour at $120, so we released back to the County $720

  26. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 – Other Multnomah • Other sources of Value Added Savings • GovDeals – Surplus Sales of Equipment • Awarded Scholarships for Training • Awarded Grants and Stipends • Recovery of Business Income Tax • Recovery of owed fees/payments from other • Government Agencies • Using discounts in buying volume training

  27. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5: GovDeals Surplus • Received Notice from GovDeals Accounting:

  28. GETTING STARTED – STEP 5 – Additional Types • Other sources of Savings • Additional products/services at no cost • Collaborative procurement – time and money • More efficient processing of transactions • Mitigation of proposed price increase • Sponsorship/revenue generation • Elimination of a purchase request • Rebates/prompt payment discount

  29. QUESTIONS?

  30. GETTING STARTED – Output

  31. GETTING STARTED – Output

  32. GETTING STARTED – Quantitative Output • Database becomes central historical repository • Basis for annual reporting to Management team • and Politicals • Captures both Cash Releasing and Non-Cash • Releasing Efficiencies • Easy to Understand and Defend

  33. Wrapping Up Areas needing further development: • RFPs – even if not cash releasing • Intermediate Procurements • Process improvements • Virtual Contracts and Cooperative Buying

  34. Lessons Learned • Start Simple • Build some basic rules and stick to them • Grow your program as you become familiar with the Software and how to take on new savings • Use current processes to gather data • If you need help – contact Spikes Cavell
