Cost Management
Cost management is a crucial part of any business and we are committed to working with your business to deliver efficiencies through:
Efficient Purchasing
We look at how we can reduce the number of product requisitions resulting in more effective use of time and labour and a reduction in administration costs.
Reduced Stock Holding
A minimal stock holding will result in not only a reduction of capital being used but also reduce the risk of obsolescence and waste within the business.
Management Information
We provide management information supported by objective-driven reviews and information to identify all areas of usage, excess, non-compliance and leakage. Visibility is provided via our reporting which can be allocated by cost centre and/or centrally.
Evaluation of Core Items
To ensure your core contract lines reflect the items that are being regularly purchased we would analyse product usage on a regular basis. This is important to ensure that you have product standardisation so that volumes on potential contract items are not diluted.
Control of Waste
Ensure you buy the correct products in the correct quantities and avoid obsolescence.
Reducing Pilfering & Abuse
We will analyse fluctuations in purchasing levels to minimise misuse.
Customer Services
Cost savings on products purchased and cost reductions via improved business efficiencies are irrelevant without appropriate service levels supporting any agreement. We recognise that a "Onesize fits all" policy cannot be applied to the supply of office products, therefore we are commited to maintaining a flexible approach to our service proposition.
Implementation
A professional and controlled implementation is crucial to ensure a successful transition from current supplier to new supplier is achieved. Our dedicated Implementation Manager will ensure that the supply transition is seamless.
