Self Diagnostic Tool

Does your existing purchasing staff spend more time on replenishment and keeping the business running activities than they do on strategic sourcing and cost reduction?
Is the purchasing responsibility for certain key categories assigned to resources in your operations or administration group rather than to professional purchasers?
Does your company manage the purchases of large dollar volume categories well but leaves the smaller dollar volume purchases unmanaged?
Are you aware of cost reduction opportunities within your organization that you do not have the time, knowledge or resources to action?
Do you have two or more locations that have not fully leveraged their common purchases?
Do you feel that you have not maximized opportunities related to movement in the dollar?

If your answer is YES to any of these questions, then we can help
