Support wider AECOM stakeholders with supplier relationship management for strategic suppliers, including the use of key performance indicators and escalation of performance issues where necessary, to maintain value post contract and help to realise forecast cost savings.
Where necessary as part of a strategic sourcing project, work with AECOM Source-to-Pay u2018process ownersu2019 to consider end to end buy- channel processes with a view to improving efficiencies with our supplier base. E.g. considering purchase order compliance and adoption, workflow and approvals, and payment timescales.
