An example of outsourced procurement in practise

April 18, 2023/in Procurement/by Helen

A valuable client of ours is a UK based food manufacturer who have a strong procurement team overseeing the purchase of raw materials and packaging.  The management of in-direct procurement is outsourced to Pare.

One recent project we completed saved them £48k per annum on their PPE and janitorial spend (a saving of 18%).  That’s £48k to their bottom line!  As part of the process, the supply base was reduced from 8 to 2 and the product range was completely streamlined and standardised, thus making the ongoing buying process easier to manage.

What are the other benefits of outsourcing?

  • No costly recruitment fees
  • No ongoing costs of employment
  • No direct employment headaches
  • Additional/short term resource to solve immediate problems
  • Flexible contracts
  • Focus – complete dedication to projects requiring a quick turn around
  • Expertise
  • Specialists, not generalists
  • Removed from internal politics
  • Fresh perspective
  • No learned “bad behaviour” from within the organisation

The list is endless!
