Welcome to UShop!

Sub 70% contract compliance Paper-based Inefficient Not transparent Dysfunctional vendor management $70M annual Pcard spend that requires paper processing of each transaction

Annual paper-based transaction volume 92,000 Suppliers 25,000 Purchase Orders 315,000 Invoices 56,000 Direct Payments Majority of payments made by paper check Overall lack of data availability

Too many different ways to procure and pay – all paper based Requisition and Purchase Order PCard Limited Purchase Order Payment Request UShop replaces all of these

Eleven of the twelve schools utilize some form of electronic workflow for procurement, and nine of these use SciQuest. SciQuest is used extensively throughout Division 1 schools. Ushop is a low risk/high impact project.

Electronic workflow – Requisitions, PO’s, and Invoices Increased velocity and transparency Reduction of paper Detailed audit trail for all transactions Directs spend to existing contracts Allows better vendor management and strategic sourcing UShop integrated with University electronic approvals

State of Utah procurement code University procurement regulations Required approvals for financial transactions Accountability for funds

OUR GOAL: IMPROVE EFFICIENCY AT EACH STEP OF THE PROCUREMENT PROCESS

We have analyzed current state versus UShop procurement, step by step. We have documented both processes. When viewed side-by-side, the advantages of UShop, and the reduced effort and steps are very clear.
