Abstract:

Background and Motivation

Electronic Procurement covers both the IT-based support of operational as well as of strategic processes in Supply Management. Thus, sourcing processes, including market places and Electronic Auctions, Supplier Relationship Management and other strategic tasks are focused as well as the operational purchase-to-pay process for indirect goods. Here a special focus lies on electronic catalog-based procurement. Therefore, a broad range of applications in Electronic Procurement will be covered, some of them already well established, though usually not comprehensively implemented, others fairly new to most companies.

Module Objectives

You acquire the knowledge regarding potentials of optimized processes supported by software systems, which is of significant importance for purchasers. You will find out what types of solutions are available for different procurement tasks. You will also learn how the involved parties have to adjust their processes in order to generate the best possible economic benefit. You will be taught how to pursue projects introducing and rolling-out Electronic Procurement solutions. Additionally you will learn how to motivate staff and users in order to ensure optimized system utilization.

Module Contents

The module is designed in a distance electronic learning format. Based on extensive experience regarding practical applications as well as empirical data and theoretical foundations the domain of IT-based Supply Management will be presented to you via an electronic learning system. You will learn about different strategies for optimizing and managing procurement processes via adequate IT tools. While working through the contents, you will have the opportunity to interact with the instructors of this module. In a management report you will finally describe how to best utilize Electronic Procurement.The following topic areas will be covered intensively within this module:
- Operational and strategic Procurement Processes
- Catalogue-based Procurement Systems
- IT-based processes in Supply Chain Management
- Electronic Sourcing and E-Auctions
- Supplier Relationship Management
