10 Procurement KPIs Every GCC CFO Should Track in 2025
Procurement is increasingly a strategic function in GCC organisations — yet many boards still lack the metrics to evaluate its performance rigorously. Here are the ten KPIs that matter most.
**1. Cost Savings Rate** The percentage reduction achieved against baseline price. Target: 10–20% annually.
**2. Supplier On-Time Delivery Rate** Percentage of orders delivered on or before the agreed date. Target: 95%+.
**3. Purchase Order Cycle Time** Time from approved requisition to issued PO. Best practice: under 2 business days.
