Exostar provides P2P training package for MoD and its suppliers
Current use of P2P can mean that end users have no way of knowing what impact the data they enter will have and how well it is translated across the MoD / Industry system’s bridge.
Further, there is a variance in P2P application across MoD Project Teams, causing confusion, inefficiencies and inconsistent ‘work a-rounds’ by suppliers to complete the payment cycle. For the MoD, such differences cause inefficiencies and compromise the quality of data capture and resultant MI.
Suppliers' Lockheed Martin and MBDA collaborated with Exostar and MoD to review both sides of the P2P 'Bridge' with the result that a joint training package has been developed aimed to address these issues by providing a single recommended way of operating P2P.
This training guide is free and accessible to all suppliers and MoD alike on the Exostar website .
Comments and suggested changes / additions are welcome by suppliers and MoD, by using the contact us link on the Exostar website. These will be reviewed by the joint MoD/Supplier team with any ratification for formal change to the document being the responsibility of the UKCeB Trading Forum.
