E-Procurement at Cathay Pacific Airways: e-Business Valuation
內容大綱
At the end of 2001, Cathay Pacific's CXeBuy electronic procurement system was fully operational for its headquarters in Hong Kong. The 14-month implementation project aimed at applying Internet-based technology to build the most efficient purchasing process and capability in the industry. Although the project was far from complete, a member of the Project Steering Committee (PSC) queried the actual benefits realized so far as a result of e-procurement implementation. Robert Lamoureux, manager in charge of the e-procurement initiative, proposed to the PSC to formulate a methodology that user departments could apply at will to assess the impact of CXeBuy on their operations. However, some members of the committee raised concerns that such a voluntary approach would serve only a limited purpose and would fall short of providing department heads with an overview of the impact of CXeBuy on the overall corporate mission. Other PSC members were unsure of the need for such a valuation exercise at this early stage. Something had to be done to reinstate the need for accountability and support the premise that any Cathay Pacific e-business initiative had to prove its value.
