Procurement

Our work with Procurement

Ticon have worked on procurement projects since our inception. We have supported clients to deliver a wide range of savings projects, advising both suppliers and buyers on how to improve their purchasing and supply chain interactions. We understand the challenge of delivering procurement savings, either from cost savings or from process improvements through transactional efficiencies.

We've worked on procurement spend analysis, savings cases for collaborative purchasing, supply chain analysis and purchasing efficiency projects. Our team has specialised in helping organisations to co-ordinate their procurement, cut costs and deliver savings across a wide range of categories.

Projects we've worked on:

• Professional services procurement
• Supply chain analysis
• Supplier engagement programmes
• Collaborative purchasing projects
• e-Purchasing initiatives
• e-Marketplace implementations
• e-Sourcing and tendering initiatives

We provide a specialist service for buyers and suppliers to Government to help them improve their procurement operations. Ticon Foresight is a unique database that can be used by buyers to manage categories, increase collaboration, monitor savings and reduce costs. To find out more about Ticon Foresight click here.

Our detailed knowledge of both private and public sector procurement makes us an ideal partner for organisations looking to deliver savings through better procurement and purchasing.

e-procurement

Procurement is the third most important aspect of an organisation's operation. After the product and the sales, it is procurement that defines the value of any offering that the organisation can put into place; sound procurement is a necessity for every organisation.

A solid procurement strategy and function is essential to give companies the competitive edge they need to profit in competitive markets. Procurement is also a critical factor in helping public sector organisations deliver their efficiency targets.

From purchase cards to contracts management, Ticon can help determine whether you have a business case for implementing any e-procurement technology. We're 'technology independent' which means we are not tied to any of the software houses. We can help you conduct an options appraisal so that you can determine what the right product and implementation route is for your organisation. Getting your people to use the software properly generates savings. We can help you put the software into the right places in the right way and can make sure that your processes are efficient and that your contract savings are in place.

Ticon can help you make the most of your investment. We know where the procurement opportunities exist and how to drive savings from existing systems.
