“When Siemens came on board, Procurement was seen as a failing function and PSU (Croda´s Supply Chain Optimization Program) as the highest-risk area within Croda´s transformation program. Six months later, Procurement’s reputation has massively improved and the Transformation team are asking whether we can uplift the PSU targets by 40% to help close delivery gaps elsewhere.
I’m grateful Siemens Advanta pursued this with us as genuine partners – their commitment and confidence in the case for change have given us real momentum to take the next step.”
Gave the executive team a credible, benchmarked business case - more than £20' annualized savings opportunity with returns averaging ~5x the required investment - plus a clear savings methodology. Successful implementation was achieved by Siemens running the PMO for the holistic Procurement Transformation and using senior exec sign-off for the roll-out of the Procurement Target Operating Model.
