transforming data into opportunity
When we sit down with you to improve your supply management process, we perform
an in-depth analysis of your spend data. This focuses on:
- What you spend
- Whom you spend it with
- How you spend it.
As part of this we assess your supply opportunities and analyse your
supplier relationships.
Supply opportunities
Here, we:
- Collect and analyse all spend data throughout your company
- Validate that spend against your General Ledger for accuracy
- Match your supplier master file against the D&B database to build a picture
of your suppliers, and their relationships with each other
- find potential opportunities to leverage your spend
Supplier relationships
Here we:
- Identify duplicate suppliers and tell you if you’re using different suppliers
to buy the same product or service
- Find out if certain suppliers are ‘related’ so you can leverage your relationships
when negotiating contracts
- Identify the risk of being too dependent on one company
- Pinpoint suppliers whose identification does not meet D&B’s acceptable
accuracy
The result? A full and accurate picture of your purchasing spend and supplier
base to help you deliver the best product for the lowest cost.
Our Supply Management System includes two further modules:
Supply intelligence - focuses on your sourcing
goals and helps you find more of the right suppliers.
Supply Base Optimisation – helps you automate
your processes so you only work with the latest supplier data.
