Top Ten Reasons to Outsource Purchasing

  1. Hard Dollar Cost Reductions. Measurable cost reductions for a broad range of goods, services, supplies, and materials. Research suggests that organizations can reduce indirect expenses by 25% using proven purchasing processes & strategic sourcing techniques.
  2. Supply Base Optimization. Supply base optimization at the category level. Reduce the supplier base where too many suppliers exist and increase competition where needed to reduce costs, improve supplier performance and increase customer satisfaction.
  3. Reduce Operating Costs. Purchasing resources to augment and/or supplement your management and employee team with a commitment to achieve annual cost reduction targets over the term of the purchasing service.
  4. Process Simplification. Deep Purchasing expertise will provide immediate soft cost benefits with efficient and effective supplier programs that simplify the commitment, order entry, invoice and payment processes.
  5. Access to Best Practices. Purchasing best practices including spend analysis, strategic sourcing, quoting, process simplification, contracting, partnering, supplier management, measurement and regular management reporting for dealerships.
  6. Improve Dealer Focus. Outsourced purchasing helps dealer management and employees focus on the sales and service of vehicles, their core business. Professional purchasing resources will improve the performance of sub-optimal business units.
  7. Category Expertise. Experience acquired in over 35 purchase categories including auto parts, auto services, towing, uniforms, office supplies, aftermarket accessories, transportation, payroll services, waste, printed materials, janitorial services, industrial supplies, tooling and more.
