Cost reduction

Having carried out a Procurement scan, is the conclusion that certain procurement costs can be reduced? If so, then Alfa Delta Compendium can help you to save on costs in the process. Did you know that:

• A 5% cost saving on procurement = a 30% increase in sales;
• 50% of procurement costs relate to internal products and services;
• Transparent contract management provides knowledge regarding the number of contracts, the term and criteria set;
• Being knowledgeable about your supplier will put you in a good position for negotiating further cost savings;
• Restricting the number of suppliers > fewer contracts > better overview > reduced opex;
• Managing and controlling your procurement system centrally and digitally will benefit your organisation on a number of levels.

Accuracy is key in cost reduction
From our testimonials, you will get an idea about the depths we explore to generate significant and enduring cost savings. We place a significant focus on the specification phase, where we examine the current situation / problem to define the issue. We will determine the context of the goods and services procured and detail and analyse the process, invoices and agreements carefully in order to identify where costs are actually being incurred and how they can be reduced. Then we will help with the entire procurement process in order to implement savings.

We will also try to consolidate procurement volumes and sometimes we will come up with unorthodox solutions. Solutions which make us unique and bring you considerable savings, but which also enable you to maintain these savings, on an ongoing basis.

Our pragmatic approach means that after you have concluded a new agreement, we can also help you to make sure that the new arrangements are upheld within the organisation as well as develop measurement points to enable you to check whether or not the new arrangements have had the desired effect and thus to make any necessary adjustments.
