Interim Management

Supporting supply chain transformation by bringing in top-flight expertise

A change program that engages interim management creates a stable foundation on which to demonstrate best practice and embed in the organization the permanent change expertise learned through custom management training. eXegy will provide interim management resources with working knowledge of strategic sourcing, its key tools, and the category and procurement expertise to achieve targeted results.

Best practice program management and coaching

Many of our interim management team have worked in consulting across a range of high-end clients, where they played pivotal roles in strategic sourcing processes and related governance. When our seasoned line and category managers work side by side with client staff, custom management training reaches maximum value by:

• measuring quality by the delivery of results against targeted objectives
• measuring successful learnings transfer to team(s)
• developing and executing strategies through real-time mentoring and coaching

Working side by side to foster knowledge transfer and success

An overall measure of success is the seamless handover of the category to client staff who we've coached and developed along the way. Managers have had the chance to cultivate new skills without undue pressure or exposure; as they see value delivered under interim management, stakeholders commit to sustained effort. The eXegy approach has brought proven savings in both commoditized and highly regulated environments. Examples include:

• Deployed a global team of interim category managers for a medical supply manufacturer covering everything from car fleet and telecomm to packaging and chemical supplies; resulting in millions of dollars of documented savings.
• Assisted a newly-appointed head of indirect procurement with major market responsibilities with one-to-one coaching of the team as well as establishing a program for stakeholder education
