Rapid Sourcing

Over the years you will have seen PIP’s expertise in strategic sourcing - where we work with your people to deliver significant savings from improved sourcing of your top categories. More than any other time, now, at the bottom of the cycle, is a great time to be purchasing. Our newsletter on strategic sourcing shows you the significant and fast savings that can come from strategic sourcing on your top categories.

But what about that vast amount of spend with all your other categories - too small for your strategic sourcing group to tackle, individually small but collectively representing a large part of your spend?

This flier gives you our solution to enable you to rapidly capture these savings. It is complementary to your strategic sourcing efforts and delivers rapid, significant reductions to your spend on the vast number of smaller purchases that make up the bulk of your suppliers. We call this “Rapid Sourcing”.
Rather than describing the ‘how’ in this short flier, we thought this brief case study below would provide you with a good illustration of how this works and the type of impact it can have.

Measurement of such savings is so clean that ‘pay for results’ is also a low maintenance option for this work - putting the risk of delivery on us.

Strategic Sourcing and Rapid Sourcing tackle different areas of spend. We recommend you do both. Rapid Sourcing is particularly suited to this one point in the cycle where you have the negotiating upper hand
