Lean Purchasing

For many products, the material costs make up the largest share of overall costs. This high value-added cost share is frequently not reflected in the significance of the purchasing department within the company, however. Purchasing is only positioned as a strategic success factor in a few companies, more frequently being viewed as a ferocious cost-pressurising element.

We realise savings potential in purchasing via systematic and integrated product group management and employ consistent supplier management to secure reliable deliveries.

The sustainability of the result is guaranteed by redesigning purchasing organisation and processes, together with transparent purchasing controlling. Purchasing activities throughout the company are bundled and co-ordinated. With these measures purchasing is strengthened and repositioned within your company.
