What is TEMPO?
TEMPO is our proven methodology for setting the pace for success. With over seven years of experience managing customer events across hundreds of thousands of line items and all types of spend—direct, indirect, and services—we offer a streamlined alternative to hard-to-implement ERPs.
Document sales priorities, identify the project team, and conduct a preliminary risk assessment.
Review current sourcing processes, create integration maps, set project KPIs, finalize kickoff agenda, confirm roles, and begin gathering data for PPO events.
Align on project governance, conduct demos and training, develop templates, and review supplier engagement strategy.
Prioritize and configure events in Arkestro, invite suppliers, manage and track events, award, measure results, and capture feedback.
Create and manage the project plan, schedule meetings, share weekly results, and develop the business case.
“Tools are great, but if no one’s using them or they’re difficult to use or no one’s helping with the change management and adoption, they might end up finding themselves on a shelf. Arkestro’s support [in implementing the platform] was the difference maker.”
— SVP of Supply Chain at a US Manufacturer
“The whole service piece from Arkestro is great — onboarding and rolling it out. They are available to do quality validation before you run a campaign. So it’s really an extension of your buyer team. We are able to do more with less. Arkestro is willing to push the success of your company.”
— Dirk Meuzelaar, Director of Global Strategic Sourcing at Provisur
“We had boots on the ground, we launched the project, we completed the project using game theory and getting dynamic feedback…and it’s worked! So not only was the platform very useful, but the Arkestro team was tremendous, helping us get set up and running that first event side by side.”
— Sean Park, Vice President of Procurement and Transformation at Arm Holdings
