Strategic Sourcing
Many organizations undertake strategic sourcing initiatives in an effort to purchase
the goods and services they require at the best prices and with the best overall
vendor arrangements. But a large number fail to realize or sustain the benefits
they expected.
The Claro Group assists organizations of all types achieve procurement and spend
goals by applying a variety of sourcing techniques, including:
- Incumbent negotiations
- Online reverse auctions (including experience with: Ariba, Ketera, Oracle, VerticalNet,
Emptoris and others)
- RFI, RFQ, RFP
- Demand management and consumption strategies
- Compliance strategies
Our sourcing and procurement professionals have experience in dozens of spend categories
ranging from vehicle fleet to travel to office supplies to relocation services.
We utilize a flexible implementation approach designed to maximize the savings realized,
while also considering the often-significant change management implications. Then,
we utilize savings dashboards and other savings measurement tools to track and sustain
the benefits.
In all, Claro Group professionals have worked with clients to analyze approximately
$17 billion in spend and achieve savings in excess of $2 billion.
