Supporting clients who require specialist procurement expertise, we utilise our ‘Sourcing2Supervision ’ model, delivering end­-to­-end sourcing activity suited to complex or high risk procurement projects.

Our specialists work closely with stakeholders; to determine the project scope, objectives and key success criteria, before going out to market to identify suitable suppliers, negotiate favourable contract terms and ensure value for money.

Before completion of the project, activities including the development of an in-life handbook are used to support implementation and supplier management, to help build and maintain stronger relationships.

We review your supplier contracts and invoices to assess the fastest possible gains and mitigate risk in your organisation for the most significant impact. SMARTanalysis puts you in the driving seat of procurement so that you can you introduce small changes that deliver benefits and savings.

This solution is used by many of our clients to fund further investment, to deliver their organisation’s strategic programmes that support top-line growth and increase profits. SMARTanalysis puts you in control as you move from buying ‘stuff’ in an ad-hoc manner to a structured procurement approach; it further convinces your stakeholders about the true value of procurement as a profit improvement tool. 

SMARTset-up is your solution to ensure best practice procurement. Standardising and organising your procurement activities to ensure you maintain clarity and control over your buying strategies, giving senior leadership confidence that the necessary controls are in place.

Our specialist team build a tailored Procurement Office on your existing environment.

We offer a range of courses designed by Chartered Institute of Procurement & Supply (CIPS) qualified trainers.  We deliver these to businesses wanting to roll out or introduce procurement into their organisation, where they are looking to standardise and up-skill their procurement function or buyers to support their longer term ambitions.
