• Define normalized cost and performance metrics, report budget versus committed versus actual spend, track price variance, savings, cost avoidance, cash flow, and total landed cost.
• Build supplier performance reporting, scorecards, review cadences, and forecasting methodologies covering delivery, lead times, quality, responsiveness, commitments, supply, and demand.
• Design dashboards and reliable reporting datasets by consolidating ERP, source-to-pay, project management, and supplier-system data; automate recurring reporting and maintain documentation and data dictionaries.
