About Us
Procurement Associates are specialists in the subject of procurement & strategic sourcing. We exist because organisations appreciate our passion for the subject, like our commitment to providing great value for money and prefer our flexible approach.
People need structure and work best within a professional framework. Procurement Associates has established a quality standard and expects all associates to operate within this framework. Everyone has access to proven sourcing methodology, a common suite of processes, tools and templates. Naturally, we combine these with client’s own practices, if needed. We have a strong blend of knowledge and experience that means we are in an excellent position to put theory into practice. Furthermore, our business model means our charges are very competitive and significantly lower than most consulting organisations.
What we do
Procurement Associates provides its clients with advice and support in a number of specialist areas within procurement and strategic sourcing. We do this by bringing together respected independent practitioners who have a history of working within FTSE 100, FTSE 250 companies. Our associates have a wealth of relevant knowledge and experience and more importantly can be trusted to roll up their sleeves and deliver results.
What we don’t do is force standard processes and people sets. Our clients prefer us to take an integrated approach, working with internal teams to add value. Typical assignments include support on procurement transformation; spend analysis, category sourcing and driving cost reduction programmes. In all cases our flexible approach is tailored to meet specific needs.
Recognising the importance of contingency resourcing we have recently launched our Active Network Resourcing programme. This is an important service for clients who wish to tap into our talent pool on an as-needed basis. It is a very cost efficient and unique service offering which is designed to maximise the effective use of flexible highly skilled resources without the need for time consuming selection processes.
