Clients turn to us for consulting on strategic issues. We provide unique insight into strategies, techniques, & technologies used by today's "best practice" supply-management organizations.
Clients appreciate the practical solutions that come from our experience in consulting roles, coupled with proven "real world" experience managing best-in-class corporate procurement operations.
Our strategic services include:
Technology Tool Selection & Use:
We assist clients in comparing, selecting, and using supply management technology tools, like eProcurement Systems, pCard Providers, eSourcing Tools (eRFx & Auction), Expenditure Analysis Software, Contract Management Software, and Group Procurement Organizations (consortium tools), etc. What our clients appreciate is that we are able to separate the "Smoke and Mirrors" from the "Industry Hype" and recommend solutions that provide them with a true ROI.
Often we do not recommend new systems, but work with clients to achieve the unfulfilled promise from existing technologies. We also review their processes to ensure they will work well in an automated environment.
Organizational Design:
Today's procurement organization must be structured to impact the entire enterprise spend base. We have experience implementing organizational structures that efficiently address the three major stakeholders with whom procurement interacts: (1) Executive Leadership, (2) Customer Groups, and (3) Suppliers.
