5 steps to increase profits

1. Minimise transaction costs

Your ordering processes are laborious and consume unnecessary resources? Are you confronted with a large number of low-value free-text orders and incomplete purchase requisitions? We make specific system adjustments, create interfaces for additional catalogue connections and offer training for the end users. In this way, we increase the quality and at the same time reduce the effort for generating free-text orders. In addition, we reduce the volume of invoice discrepancies and thus also the workload in accounts payable.

Would you like to make additional savings? We will be happy to take care of the complete order generation process for you or cover workload peaks. We have a pool of experts ready for this and can also call on specialists from the team neusta group of companies if required - quickly, easily and at attractive conditions.

2. Achieve optimal negotiation results

Negotiating cleverly has to be learned! Trained specialist staff are able to achieve optimal negotiation results with suppliers and fulfil purchasing objectives. In addition, qualified staff enhance the image of the purchasing department vis-à-vis the specialist departments and suppliers in the long term.

We can strengthen your team with experienced, qualified specialist buyers. This means that you have sufficient specialist staff available at peak times or for complex tenders. A small side effect: there is a mutual transfer of knowledge among the employees.

3. Strengthen the position of the purchasing department

Do the departments in your company place orders independently without involving the purchasing department? This is often due to the fact that the departments are not aware of the advantages and monetary benefits of purchasing. As a result, your company loses valuable savings and contracts may be concluded that do not correspond to your framework conditions.

The better your purchasing department is organised, the more likely the specialist departments are to turn to it. That is why we make the benefits of the purchasing department visible to all. First of all, we create the conditions for an optimally structured purchasing department. Among other things, we focus on: speed of order processing, transparency regarding the results of negotiations as well as the savings achieved and competent personnel. Also important: a regular exchange with the specialist departments in order to be able to prepare important tenders in time. In this way, the departments recognise the added value of the purchasing department and involve it in the future. This ultimately results in a higher tender volume and savings for the entire company.

4. Guarantee user and system support

Staff shortage in user support and this exactly in the holiday period? Does that mean: the coast is falling in your department? Not with us! We offer you customised 1st-level support. In this way, you ensure that the end users in the specialist departments can also count on the support of the purchasing department in such situations.

Within the framework of employee leasing, we provide you with suitable specialist personnel for a fixed period of time. This way, we guarantee sufficient staff during workload peaks or staff absences.

If required, the complete outsourcing of 1st level support or system maintenance to us is also possible. In this case, we first work out a support model together with you, define a service level agreement and carefully prepare the handover. Your advantages here: service guarantee, cost reduction and time for essential purchasing tasks.

5. Ensure project implementation

We get your project rolling: with personnel, know-how and IT experts. Within the projects, we take over or support the staffing of the various specialist department roles such as business analyst, project management or cutover management. This ensures the successful completion of projects without interfering with the day-to-day business of the purchasing department.

We take responsibility in the project and support internal staff in analysis, preparation of master data, testing or training.

If your IT systems no longer meet your requirements, we take over the migration of your systems to a new environment as well as system upgrades - in this way we create the optimal basis for the successful implementation of projects.
