Let’s Review the Traditional Buying Process
• Gather business requirements
• Create a vendor scorecard or qualification questionnaire
• Do your research, surf the web, read white papers
• Identify a handful of suppliers
• Invite suppliers to participate in an RFP or request individual quotes
• Meet with a parade of salespeople – see PowerPoint presentations
• Negotiate the best terms you can, based on the information you have
• Implement your solution
The Purchasing Problem We See
• It’s a distraction from core business
• You have limited “in-house” expertise
• The choices, pricing, and contracts are perplexing
• You’re stretched thin, and it’s time consuming
• It’s expensive – time and opportunity costs add up
• Using your resources is not predictable or scalable
• You vs. supplier negotiations
The Solution – We Built a Process To…
• Shorten procurement cycles
• Reduce administrative costs
• Make the best providers compete to earn your business
• Identify the best prices and solutions from qualified suppliers
• Negotiate the most favorable contract terms available
• Provide ongoing accountability, ensuring results are achieved and maintained
• Level the playing field – no gimmicks, backroom deals or aggressive sales pitches
