However, it is not always financially feasible for businesses to employ full-time procurement specialists across the full spectrum of goods and
services that can be purchased.
In our experience this tends to lead to major purchasing decisions being negotiated by employees without the in depth sector knowledge for what they are buying. They often don’t have the time to truly understand all the current costs and business requirements, business trends and supplier markets.
This can make your business vulnerable to being sold to and entering into contracts for services and supplies that may not be the best value fit for your business. We can help you make fully informed purchasing decisions for your business.
As with many businesses during these challenging times you may already be considering looking at your entire employment structure. You may wish to streamline the internal processes that you currently have, outsource or bring in external experts. These are often paid only on results and may be the first step to ensure maximum value for money. The can also ensure that all the businesses costs are under control and you are working efficiently.
