Conclusions
Need Strong Management Buy-inSpend a lot of time determining user/approver rollsSchedule roll out after completing Pilot test groupPhase in slowly, only features you want, best users firstHave an active support system – BOR, other schoolsSimple to use - Successful Implementation will automate
most small dollar purchases, reduce Pcard transactions and increase POs and lines
Implementation will increase A/P activity/vouchers

Georgia Southern UniversityGSU BackgroundProcess for Rolling Out the GFM
Procurement RoleDepartmentsTraining
How GSU Benefits from the GeorgiaFirst Marketplace
FY 13 NumbersConclusions and Recommendations
15
GSU BACKGROUNDUsed paper requisitions prior to
implementation. Procurement created the PO in PeopleSoft
Desired to convert to online requisitioning for better efficiency and accountability.
ePro was attractive due to the workflow elementStarted implementation in 2011 with a senior
buyer assuming responsibility “part time” with little progress.
2012 assigned one buyer “full time” ePro administrator duties
16
GSU BACKGROUNDProcurement’s Role
Oversight of the programTrainingRoles and Security assistanceTroubleshooting
Security and Roles administered by member of IT staff
17
PROCESS for ROLLOUTFY 13 - Of approx. 175 departments, selected 7 for pilot group
rollout for catalog ordersPilot group departments were “purchasing knowledgeable” for easeTwo phase implementation after pilot group
July – Dec: training on catalog orders in GFM Jan – May: training on Special Requests
Training: Five sessions per week with 14 in each class Hands on training accessing training database
FY 14 Complete conversion to Special Requests Cut off all paper requisitions Addressing “stragglers”, new users and refresher training Current: Approx 150 depts using with 300 Requesters
18
GFM / ePRO BENEFITSEfficiency:
Same system for catalog and non catalog orders
BOR can only use TGM as “window shoppers”GFM allows us to “shop and buy” in one placeTailored catalogs (ex. Dell)Reduces P-card reconciling effortsRequisition routine much fasterReduces lost requisitions
19
GFM / ePRO BENEFITSFinancials:
Allows better control of spending during fiscal year end due to encumbrances
Charges hit financial reports much faster than P-card expenditures
Workflow:Many approval levels available - custom
IT, Dept, Project (PI), Buyer, Amount, Assets BOR Grant (Research Accounting) Hazardous Materials
20
FY 13 NUMBERS4,260 purchase orders totaling $70.9M
2,190 catalog purchase orders totaling $732K51% of orders were catalog ordersOnly 1% of purchase order spend
26,111 P-card transactions totaling $8.2MCatalog orders only 9% of P-card spend
ChallengesWay the SWCs are structured (ex. Office Supplies)P-card “fan base”Lot of “one off” purchases from non SWC vendors
using P-card
21
CONCLUSION: WHAT DO I NEED?
Administration SupportCommitment of ResourcesCommitment of TimeFlexibility as Business Process will need
slight changesPatienceWillingness to reach out to other schools to
help or be helpedDesire to see positive results

23
Getting StartedBusiness Decisions
Identify who within the organization will use the GFM as Requesters, Buyers and possibly Shoppers (often a small group initially, then rolling out to larger audience)
Choose which electronic approvals to implementChoose receiving approach (central vs.
distributed)Peer Support
Discussions on lessons learned and experiences at schools already live
24
Getting StartedImplementation
Attend training, share training materials with your team
Assign new Security roles for access to GFM, and Approvers
Setup Requesters and Buyers in PeopleSoftReview existing Ship To codes and possibly
make minor formatting changesTest a handful of carts, requisitions, POs and
invoices in our SCITEST environment
