“Compass Group have been working with Procurement Services for multiple years now.
Following an in-depth spend analysis and provision of procurement training courses, Procurement Services is now also managing projects for direct categories to support Compass Group in achieving its new Group objectives.
One objective was to increase the use of fish from sustainable sources. This had proven to be a challenge due to the untransparent nature of the supply chain. Procurement Services have brought us more clarity and understanding of this segment. A 7% cost reduction has been achieved due to supplier consolidation, removal of excess parties in the chain and product consolidation.
In addition Procurement Services is streamlining the procurement process digitally through Mercell/Negometrix software negating the use of excel and word documents. This results into higher quality, like for like bids, and a smooth RFP process.
Compass Group managed to increase it’s use of fish from sustainable sources in the Netherlands from 22% to 85%. Without the support from Procurement Services such a vast increase would not have been achieved.”
