Your OKR template

This OKR aims to streamline and optimize the purchasing process. The primary objective includes a 10% cost reduction, which will be achieved through establishing strategic partnerships with suppliers. Continuous monitoring and assessment of cost-saving performance and identifying potential suppliers for partnerships form integral aspects of this goal.

Another major objective is to digitize all paper-based purchase orders for better traceability. Implementing a digital purchase order system, training staff on the new process, and converting all existing paper-based orders to the digital medium are the key planned initiatives.

The third significant objective is geared towards reducing the supplier lead time by 15%. To achieve this, strategizing effective negotiation techniques during renewal discussions, identifying key suppliers, and analyzing their current lead times form the cornerstone of the initiatives.

By implementing these objectives, the overall aim is to refine and optimize the purchasing process, contributing to increased operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
