Improvement Plan Purchase to Pay No. Area of Improvement 1 Move accountability and responsibility to budget Holder/Manager and make procurement/Finance role about a) training, b) advice and c) some exception checking - not managing end to end process. 2 Encourage most spend via STOCK route or CATALOGUE - minimise ADHOC spend 3 Consider removing Procurement from the Po approval process except high value adhoc £ 40 k. 4 Ojeu spend procurement input as required. Less input on smaller spend frees time for high value high risk. 5 Strategy set for usage on Government Procurement Card with authorisation by line managers and periodic exception reporting review by procurement 6 Management Information readily available and automated where possible on: -Purchase order and No PO volumes. - invoice queries by requisitioner/budget holder - invoices paid days and invoice date to system date. - manual pay routes -MI by team member. 7 Reduce volumes of invoices without a Purchase Order. Aim for 95% + PO or other preapproved payment methods. Obtain MI and tackle top 10 suppliers by NO Po then next 10 until achieve the target. Consider alternative approach to payment for spent type - e. g. rent and donor sessions. 8 Aim for 95% + of invoices to be paid without query/hold or delay. Queries are generated by receipts not being entered for goods, price or order quantity mismatch etc. Obtain information to understand where the holds are occurring, why and set improvement targets until 95%+ is achieved. 9 Invoices scanned – No Po invoices start electronic approval. All invoices easily viewed by all- reduce need to access paper copies and filing space needed. (also see 15 increase electronic capture of invoice)
