    Procurement & supplier savings

    Pay less for what you buy without hurting quality or supply.

    Spend analysis, supplier negotiations and demand management across direct materials and indirect spend, plus the policies and contracts that keep prices, terms and supply risk under control after the savings land.

    WHEN COMPANIES CALL US

    You may need this if…

    • Nobody can say with confidence how much you spend with your top 20 suppliers.
    • Different sites or business units buy the same things from different suppliers at different prices.
    • Supplier price increases are accepted without challenge.
    • Contracts auto-renew and payment terms vary widely.
    • Supply disruptions have exposed dependence on single suppliers.

    QUESTIONS THIS ANSWERS

    • Where is our spend concentrated, and where are we paying different prices for the same thing?
    • Which suppliers have room to move on price or terms?
    • Are we buying more, or a higher specification, than we need?
    • Where are we exposed to a single supplier?

    HOW WE MEASURE IT

    • Price savings versus baseline
    • Share of spend under contract
    • Payment terms
    • Supplier on-time delivery and quality

    COMMON QUESTIONS

    Before you get in touch.

    Supplier changes are planned with operations and quality, with trials and transition periods. Many savings come from renegotiating with current suppliers.
