Our Working Model:

A Structured Approach to Strategic Procurement

We believe that effective procurement transformation starts with a clear understanding of the current state. Our proven methodology is based on a four-phase approach designed to deliver measurable results while aligning procurement operations with business goals.

Phase 1: In-Depth Analysis

Every engagement begins with a deep-dive assessment of your procurement function. We perform a comprehensive "Procurement Health Assessment" which includes:

Procurement maturity assessment
Interviews with internal stakeholders
Interviews with key suppliers (where applicable)
Evaluation of procurement indicators such as spend distribution, automation level, supplier base structure, and more
SWOT analysis to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and risks

This phase helps us uncover hidden inefficiencies, spend leakages, and improvement areas that are critical to setting the right direction for change.

Phase 2: Current State Report & Executive Alignment

Following the analysis, we prepare a detailed Procurement Analysis Report outlining findings, insights, and identified gaps.

This report is shared with key stakeholders through interactive workshops or executive presentations.

Together, we align on priority areas for improvement and build a shared understanding of the current procurement maturity level. This mutual agreement forms the foundation for strategy development and change management initiatives moving forward.

Phase 3: Strategy Development & Initiative Design

Using insights and stakeholder input, we collaboratively develop procurement strategies at both organizational and category levels.

This includes:

Category strategy design
Supplier strategy alignment
Risk mitigation planning
Procurement transition roadmap

Based on the approved strategy, we define concrete initiatives such as:

Cost reduction or avoidance
Process automation
Supplier consolidation
Contract standardization
Capability development for procurement teams

Each initiative includes KPIs, timelines, responsibilities, and review checkpoints to ensure alignment and measurable progress.

Phase 4: Implementation & Measuring Results

We provide hands-on support in the implementation of agreed initiatives and continuously track progress. Results are measured in terms of:

Financial impact (e.g., savings realized vs. planned)
Strategy execution progress
Supplier performance improvements
Procurement efficiency gains

Dashboards, reports, and review workshops are used to ensure transparency and support continuous improvement.

Lean & Agile Mindset

Our approach is based on simplicity, agility, and efficiency. Whether working with centralized, decentralized, or hybrid procurement models, we tailor our methodology to fit your organizational structure and strategic priorities.
