Procurement for profit
The market for services has changed rapidly: high transparency, immense and price-driven competitive pressure, and the short lifespan of competitive advantages. The procurement of these intangible services is now hardly distinguishable from the procurement of industrial or material products. Long-term customer relationships are being replaced by instruments such as e-Procurement, regular tenders, etc. Moreover, in many service companies, purchasing is not consistently centrally organised; rather, the purchasing process typically falls under the responsibility of individual departments. However, cross-departmental purchasing is very inefficient and costly. The cost structure itself, besides personnel costs, is characterised by classic direct and indirect costs (IT, marketing, energy, facilities, etc.). According to the experience of the Kloepfel industry team, savings potential for service providers is up to 20%. Kloepfel Consulting provides you with sustainable economic advantages through systematic optimisation of these costs!
