The first outcome aims for a 10% reduction in department spending through cost-saving initiatives. This includes creating and applying more efficient operational procedures, introducing budget training to personnel for more effective resource distribution, and conducting detailed analysis of current department expenditures to pinpoint potential areas for reduction.
The second outcome focuses on minimizing operational expenses by 15% through better utilization of resources. Measures outlined to achieve it involve identification of waste and redundancy in resource distribution, regular monitoring and reassessment of resource effectiveness, and the development and implementation of strategies to optimise resource usage.
The third outcome seeks to enhance procurement operations, yielding a saving of 8% on supply chain costs. The proposed strategies include streamlining order processes to eliminate unnecessary purchases, establishing a centralized procurement approach for improved price negotiation and control, and frequent evaluations of suppliers to explore more cost-efficient options.
