2 Agenda Why Leveraging Procurement and Supplier Relationship Management are Crucial for the German Manufacturing Industries What is going on in the Supply Markets with the Economy Rebounding? How to become a Preferred Supplier / Seite 3 Two old wisdoms to start with People do not understand how important is thriftiness as a source of income. (Marcus Tullius Cicero) When the wind of change is blowing, you can build walls or - windmills. (Chinese wisdom) / Seite 4
3 and a new wisdom follows 2009/2010 have been for the German manufacturing industries the years of procurement and supply management! Procurement and supply management have been for our manufacturing industries and even the service industries effective strategic levers to face the challenges of the recession! Buyers markets in 2009 offered new opportunities and windfall profits. But will this continue? / Seite 5 In 2009 the German industry suffered from the sharpest downturn after world war II / Seite 6
4 Low capacity utilization in the metal and electrical industries / Seite 7 But: Positive expectations and good facts are back; bookto-bill ratios are improving / Seite 8
5 The recession seems to be over! But is the crisis under control? / Seite 9 Manufacturing recovery is in full swing worldwide / Seite 10
6 More manufacturing orders and inventory cycle ending / Seite 11 What is needed to come out stronger of the crisis? Work smarter not harder not only within your own company but also in the whole supply chain. Become agile instead of clumsy and bureaucratic. Focus on your technical know-how and sharpen your unique selling proposition/profile. Do the splits between intelligent cost saving and innovating for new businesses / Seite 12
7 Which are the key tasks of procurement in the current economic situation? Stabilize the EBIT margins not through squeezing only the prices but through optimizing the total material costs of ownership together with the preferred suppliers. Optimize the capital employed in the supply chain. Manage the risks in the supply chain (insolvencies of suppliers we depend on). Work smarter not harder with your preferred suppliers / Seite 13 Excellence in procurement pays off Operative Margin Other Costs Staff Costs Costs of Purchasing EBIT margin in Profit contribution of % procurement Trade 3,4 52% MC = Material Costs in % of revenues Foods Chemical Industry 2,5 5,0 60% 24% MCR = Material Cost Reduction in % of the total material costs/spend EM = EBIT Margin % Mechanical Engeneering 3,3 43% PI = Profit Impact of procurement as compared to necessary revenue growth 0% 25% 50% 75% 100% Reducing material costs by 3% has the same profit impact like increasing turnover by PI = MC x MCR EM / Seite 14
8 Agenda Why Leveraging Procurement and Supplier Relationship Management are Crucial for the German Manufacturing Industries What is going on in the Supply Markets with the Economy Rebounding? How to become a Preferred Supplier / Seite 15 What has been changing for procurement throughout the crisis? The good message for purchasing managers: The sellers markets of the boom that made life very difficult for the purchasing managers throughout the last three years have become buyers markets in Two bad messages for purchasing managers: (1) Supply shortages and prices going up. (2) The risk of suppliers defaults have increased and will further increase through / Seite 16
9 Supercycle of the commodity prices was only interrupted! / Seite / Seite 18
10 Challenges: Higher material prices and longer delivery periods / Seite 19 Agenda Why Leveraging Procurement and Supplier Relationship Management are Crucial for the German Manufacturing Industries What is going on in the Supply Markets with the Economy Rebounding? How to become a Preferred Supplier / Seite 20
11 Expectations towards preferred suppliers (after the recession) Quality excellence and reliability of supplies and services Liability and warranty according to customer needs Competitiveness as to prices and productivity increases Innovational capability: target cost achievement for products and projects, synchronized technology roadmap Complementary capabilities: together we are stronger Financial stability/solid balance ratios Transparency and communication / Seite 21 Forms of cooperation OEM/suppliers Market based competition Selective competition Selective partnership Strategic alliance Basis der Beziehung Daten Informationsaustausch Wissensvermittlung Aufbau von Fachwissen Dauer des Einsatzes Transaktion (kurzfristig) Jahresvertrag Lebensdauer Über die Lebensdauer der Baureihe hinaus Grad der Eingliederung Keine Lieferanteneingliederung Begrenzte Lieferanteneingliederung in die Produktentwicklung, entlang festgelegter Schnittstellen Lieferanteneingliederung in die Produktentwicklung, gemeinsame Bestimmung der Schnittstellen Eingliederung von Bereichen/Teams, gemeinsames Konzept u.

12 Role of procurement and preferred suppliers in the product innovation process / Seite 23 The relationship with the suppliers must be defined / Seite 24
13 Conclusion What you suppliers should recommend to your customers/the buyers: Do what you can do best, and outsource the rest. What you need in challenging times is confidence in your own capabilities: There is no job too immense, when you have confidence (Elvis Presley) / Seite 25
