In 2004
• Bristol Business School (BBS) and the CIPS carry out first research into the effect of E Auctions have on Buyer-Supplier relationship called I-ADAPT
• Findings are unambiguous – Relationship is not harmed in fact evidence points to it being enhanced. Reasons being-– Buyer has to be more diligent in their pre-auction preparations– Suppliers recognise most likely to lose new business on service,
quality, delivery etc. - not price– Auctions goods and services not in ‘strategic ‘ category

So in late 2009 we decided to carry out some new research
How are E Sourcing tools being deployed in the Public and Private sectors within the UK?
What is the penetration?Who is using them?What do users see as the key enablers?What do both users and non users see as the key inhibitors?

So how did we go about it?Our Literature Review showed-
• Numerous E Sourcing Suppliers / Consultancies who write on the subject
• Whole new business has been built around ‘Strategic Sourcing’ over last 10 or so years extending beyond large consultancies
• No evidence of similar independent academic research• An abundance of academic research on Innovation, little
of it linked to Purchasing and Supply , none to E Sourcing

So how did we go about it?
We produced and piloted a data gathering questionnaire that –
• Aimed to cover a broad spectrum of public and private sector respondents
• Was designed to identify innovation factors, sources and types
• Was aimed at obtaining 80-100 respondents

How did we get on?
• 90 respondents from 350 e mail requests and 5 from CIPS e-newsletter – so 99 in total
• 33% Private sector - 67% Public sector• Public sector mix of health, local & central govt.• High incidence of multinationals in private sector• No respondents from Construction Companies• Mean response time 6.4 minutes• 95% of respondents had no problem completing
questionnaire
