Programme-Level Reporting
The Programme-Level Reporting Toolkit allows you to create reports and management information that covers all of your key suppliers, as well as for just for a single supplier.
This is aimed at Heads of Department, Procurement Directors, CPOs and others who have responsibility for a portfolio of key suppliers.
Why?
The SMaRT Supplier Management Workbook provides you with great insight and management information for a single key supplier. If you want a consolidated and aggregated view across all your key suppliers, then you’ll need the Programme-Level Reporting Toolkit.
The Programme-Level Toolkit allows you to see compliance information and management information across all your key suppliers. It’s invaluable in understanding how well your supplier management programme is working, and where your pain-points are.
What is in the Programme-Level Reporting Toolkit?
The Programme-Level Toolkit is an Excel-based Toolkit which consists of:
- Programme-Level Reporting Dashboard
- Programme-Level Compliance Report
- Programme-Level Risk Register Template
- Programme-Level Governance Board Terms of Reference
How should you use it?
Firstly, you will need to have deployed Supplier Management Workbooks for each of your key suppliers. Without that, you simply won’t have the information that you need for Programme-Level Reporting.
To report across your entire portfolio of key suppliers you will need a central resource to have responsibility for the production of the reports. They will act in a role similar to a “Programme Management Officer” for a project/programme of work.
They will collate, automatically or manually, all the necessary information from staff who populate the Supplier Management Workbooks. They will use that to populate the Programme-Level Reporting Dashboard and the Programme-Level Compliance Report.
These documents will form the primary feeds into the CPO/Procurement Director/Head of Supplier Management, and to any Governance Board that is established to have oversight of the supplier management programme.
When?
The Programme-Level Reports should ideally be published monthly, so the data is current and so that decisions are taken based on up to date information.
The reporting is needed for as long as your organisation has a portfolio of key suppliers.
Who?
You will need a central resource to produce the Programme-Level reports. The audience for the reports will be Heads of Department, Procurement Directors, CPOs and others who have responsibility for a portfolio of key suppliers.
