Organizational Design

From “As Is” to “Best Suited”

GEP starts a procurement transformation journey with a 360-degree assessment of the organization “as is” then coordinates closely with key stakeholders to develop a detailed plan that encompasses:

  • Global and regional needs of locations
  • Operational requirements and practices
  • Identifying and closing gaps in skills, roles, and processes
  • The proper mix of centralized vs. decentralized functions
  • Detailing the best future-state structure for the organization

GEP works with client teams to understand how organizations plan out the most optimal way to transform the procurement function. GEP's deep experience with supply chain and procurement organizations, and proven methodology helps you steer clear of the seemingly ‘good’ practices that often prove costly, such as off-shoring and outsourcing the wrong functions, or creating an organization that doesn’t function effectively in the overall enterprise, due to technology or strategic mismatches.
