Measuring Cost Savings: Management’s Perspective (Virginia Forum 2010)

What results really “count” and what can we learn from the results of a survey conducted among Finance Directors, City Managers and other Senior Executives concerning the role of procurement performance measurement? Focused on techniques for measuring cost savings in bids, learn the correlation between Senior Executive responses to a similar survey of Procurement Managers on the same topic. Do they agree? Do they disagree? Developed in conjunction with the NIGP Research Program, this interactive session has participants working together as part of an ongoing project to attain a consensus standard for cost savings measurement. Broadcasting Live from the Commonwealth of Virginia’s Forum 2010 at the Hampton Roads Convention Center, in beautiful Hampton, Virginia November 15th to 17th, 2010, this segment features Michael E. Bevis, CPPO, C.P.M., PMP – Chief Procurement Officer, City of Naperville, Illinois.
