Effectively Delivering Change Management

The success of any procurement transformation is highly depending upon holistic implementation, change management and training. Procurement transformation programs require significant change that impacts people, process and technology — and must be communicated and implemented with thoughtfulness, foresight, and transparency.

Velocity Procurement guides organizations from their current state to their transformed state using proven, effective change management practices. We drive change management using methodical planning, collaborative oversight, and operational tools that are incorporated into each transformation program.

Managing a procurement transformation requires a multilayered understanding of the procurement organization’s structure and a collaborative approach that keeps impacted stakeholders engaged throughout the project. Velocity Procurement deploys a systematic approach, which starts with a thorough and comprehensive assessment of readiness and potential impact of the change, followed by ensuring alignment with the strategy and leadership, then we deliver effective communications and training to ensure clients achieve and sustain their transformation objectives.

Model for Change

Implement a highly collaborative and structured change management methodology focused on the challenges preventing growing procurement organizations and achieving ROI.

Changing people’s behavior is less about analysis and thinking than it is about seeing and feeling.

The role of emotions in change, to facilitate and to undermine, are central.

Change agents can, and do, come from all levels and all parts of an organization – look for them.

People need to be shown a reality in ways that are touchable, feelable and seeable, in order to be motivated to act – use visualizations at every stage.
