We bring today's best practices in the sourcing of high technology goods and services.
PROCUREMENT SERVICES
Disciplined Negotiations
We specialize in reviewing and negotiating favorable contract terms. In addition to saving millions of dollars, we ensure these agreements fall within your established corporate guidelines.
Our services include identifying and assessing risks, reviewing, drafting and negotiating contract terms, and negotiating applicable service levels with appropriate remedies.
Strategy Development
Procurement strategy development is an important first step, because even flawless execution won't help the enterprise unless the activity delivers a solid return on investment and furthers business objectives.
Our disciplined approach ensures your staff stays focused on your procurement strategy while producing strong net results that don't harm your vendor relationships.
Sourcing Intelligence
We frequently provide vendor management for our customers, including evaluating a potential provider's reputation, financial condition, resources, and expertise. We also become a key player when it comes to your department's interactions with its suppliers. We provide expert product and service purchasing guidance.
We assist you in obtaining better terms and pricing through an enterprise-wide view of your suppliers. This complete picture of vendor-related activity provides significant leverage when it comes to negotiating terms because the vendor manager understands the big picture and acts on behalf of the entire organization. Great efficiencies are gained when experienced people focus on maximizing company benefits through vendor management.
Staffing Solutions
We assess your department's strengths, including personnel, tools, and processes. We make recommendations and provide best practices for variable staffing and the development of your procurement organization. We stay on-site until your team is selected, trained, and functioning efficiently and effectively. In some instances, we perform procurement services on a long-term basis.
Management is task oriented. Leadership is vision oriented. We deliver both! We love what we do and that enthusiasm is contagious. When reorganizing procurement organizations, we establish clear lines of responsibility and accountability. This approach builds support and morale, while keeping internal team members motivated and focused.
Spend Analysis
Our spend analysis provides a holistic and detailed visibility into your spend patterns. It creates a foundation from which opportunities for savings can be identified and acted on. We look at what you are spending and with whom. We then incorporate our sourcing intelligence to affirm your spend choices or we make recommendations for more suitable suppliers.
With a modest time investment, you can realize significant savings.
