The importance of indirect procurement for your company
The optimization of indirect procurement is of great importance for companies as it helps to reduce overall costs and increase the efficiency of procurement processes. A specialized agency will help you develop the right strategies to analyze your indirect purchasing spend, evaluate suppliers and make optimal purchasing decisions. This not only enables you to save costs, but also to improve the quality of the goods and services you purchase.
What is generally understood by indirect purchasing?
Indirect purchasing refers to the purchase of goods and services that are not directly incorporated into a company's end product. Unlike direct purchasing, which includes materials and components needed to produce a good or provide a service, indirect purchasing focuses on supporting goods and services that keep a company running.
We focus on the following areas:
- Marketing and communication services
- Everything around your eCommerce
- Software solutions
- Consulting services
- Distribution services
Indirect purchasing is crucial to a company's efficiency and cost effectiveness as it supports many of its operational activities. Companies are increasingly looking to optimize this area to reduce costs and improve processes.
Think about how much you spend in this area and what effect a saving of 15 - 20 percent alone would have.
Why you should book this service
Optimizing indirect purchasing can offer you considerable benefits. Through customized strategies and detailed analyses, we support your company in identifying and improving inefficient processes. This not only leads to a reduction in procurement costs, but also to better control over your spending and greater transparency in purchasing decisions.
When should companies purchase this service?
It makes sense to consider optimizing indirect procurement if your company has significant spend in areas such as marketing, communications, eCommerce or sales, or is underperforming in these areas.
Especially when analyzing spending patterns or implementing new purchasing strategies, you should rely on the expertise of an agency. Even if you are dissatisfied with supplier relationships or the management of your procurement processes, now is the right time to call in a professional agency.
Typical tasks in the optimization of indirect purchasing include
- Analyzing current purchasing processes and spend
- Development and implementation of optimization strategies
- Supplier evaluation and management
- Negotiation of contracts and prices
- Training and supporting your purchasing team
What to look for when purchasing services and choosing a service provider:
