If you’re in a product-based business, procurement is key to your success. It might be difficult to manufacture all of your own parts and materials. In some
cases, it might even be impossible. Either way, finding other reliable companies to build those essential elements of your business will make
things run much more smoothly. However, coming up with an effective procurement solution can be a hassle. And procurement can quickly turn into more work than you can manage in the time you have. One solution is to hire more people. However, that’s going to cost your company money as well as time to train new employees. It’s not necessarily going to solve all your problems, either. Just having more people won’t automatically simplify procurement. If there are issues in your procurement process, you’d need to overhaul your system as well as hire additional help. And that’s going to be quite a bit of hassle for your company. Wouldn’t you rather focus on doing something else instead of worrying about whether or not your procurement system is working? To avoid difficulties associated with in-house procurement, it may be a good idea to outsource your procurement solutions. Letting another company handle your procurement system can seem odd at first. You know what your company needs and you want to stay in control of procuring the supplies essential to your business. We get that. But outsourcing procurement doesn’t necessarily mean you’re losing control and it comes with quite a few benefits.
Some of the benefits that can be gained are:
- Cost reduction from headcount, training, office space and computerization.
- Market leverage allowing for better discounts.
- Transaction cost per purchase is lowered by economies of scale.
- Marketing knowledge of which suppliers are best for each product to be purchased.
- Highly skilled staff that specialize in purchasing.
- Improved communication between purchasing experts and the company staff.
- Better management information and purchasing analysis are available for people who understand the purchasing environment
