3 3Copyright © 2014 Deloitte Development LLC. All rights reserved. Introduction ‏ In today's competitive environment, organizations are trying to develop their competitive edge by concentrating on specifics rather than trying to master all the skills. This has led to sub-contracting. When the organizations engage a contractor to complete the project, contracting firms face the challenges in providing the resources with required expertise in all the areas. So they will subcontract part of the project work to another contracting firm. Subcontracting involves complex payment terms. ‏ This session discusses the integration between Oracle Purchasing, Payables and Projects, and an approach to enable the complex payment terms for effective management of sub-contractors. ‏ This presentation should not be interpreted as a representation about or endorsement of any third party products, including Oracle software.

Overview of Procurement in the E&C Industry Common procurement application platform for multiple purchase types Bulk Commodities such as Rebar, Concrete, Lumber etc. Engineered Equipment such as Compressors, Pumps, Boilers etc. Catalogue items such as flanges, brackets, bolts etc. Subcontract Services such as Consulting, Electrical Work, Piping work etc. Rentals such as Cranes, Containers, Bulldozers etc.

6 6Copyright © 2014 Deloitte Development LLC. All rights reserved. Why Subcontracting? Specialized Services In today’s world, engineering and construction projects are so specialized in terms of technology, size, specifications and complexity that no one firm can deliver the complete project. Therefore, contractors subcontract work to subcontracting firms with specialization in niche areas to deliver the projects. Cost Reduction In many situations it is more beneficial to subcontract the work because of uncertainty and fluctuations in workload, and higher administrative overhead costs. Business Model In some situations, the business model of the company is subcontracting. These organizations always use subcontractors to deliver the contractual work. Improved Efficiency Subcontracting the work to a specialized firm may also result in gain in efficiency due to expertise of subcontracting firm in executing similar projects again and again. Risk Sharing Depending on type of contract and work involved, it may make more sense to subcontract the work and share the risk related to delivery of project.

Subcontracting Challenges Quality of Work Schedule Management Supplier Payment Controls Technology Constraints Subcontractor Qualification The work may not be executed at the level of quality which principal company wants the subcontracting firm to do. Controlling the project timelines and scope of work between subcontractors may be a challenge for the principal company. Control the payment to suppliers based on deliverables from subcontractor and payment from customer. Existing technology may not be able to support the integrated process between purchasing, payables and projects. Verifying and tracking subcontractor qualification may be a challenge due to geography, skills and work assignments.

This can prevent payment to subcontractor without payment from customer. Pay When Paid Put payment automatically on hold for overdue deliverables. This can prevent overpayment to suppliers resulting from payment before project deliverables are received.

Business Process  The project/contract manager negotiates the terms and conditions of the subcontract.  As work is performed, the subcontractor organization submits applications for payment  The approved work confirmations are placed on hold in line with the Pay when Paid subcontract clause.  The project accountant/billing administrator distributes and adjusts costs, reviews expenditures, milestones and deliverables for billing eligibility, then generates the owner invoices and revenue.  In some cases, a link between the subcontractor applications for payment, and the corresponding owner invoices, may be made.  The owner organization processes the invoice and pays the general contractor. Upon receipt of the payment, the billing administrator applies the amounts to the owner invoices.  The project manager reviews the payment applied to the owner invoice and determines the list of subcontractor applications for payment to be removed from hold, and approves them.  The Payables organization can now process the subcontractor invoices that have been released and issue payment to the subcontractor as appropriate.
