Multi Consideration/ Weighted Tendering
We understand that price is not always the only factor in a decision. A vendor’s ability to provide a high quality service must also be reviewed along with multiple other considerations. With this in mind, we work with our clients to identify their needs before creating a bespoke weighting system to ensure suppliers are scored against the things you care about most.
e-Tendering
Where suitable, we utilise e-Tendering software to ensure like for like analysis. E-Tendering (electronic tendering) is an online procurement process for automatically receiving proposals and evaluating suppliers through a software platform. e-Tendering can improve the efficiency of a tender process, increase the value identified throughout the process, maintain transparency and spend visibility and help identify higher quality suppliers.
Reverse Tenders
A more radical approach to tendering, a reverse tender is when suppliers are asked to bid for work. Where suitable (generally when the price is the key consideration), we have the ability to deploy software to encourage absolute best value through competition between vendors. A challenging environment for the supplier, but professionally executed to ensure excellent results.
Cost Avoidance
In today’s market, it is not unusual for suppliers to come with price increases due to fuel or energy surcharges. This can often result in awkward or difficult conversations and increases that may be unjustified. Allow us support you in these discussions so that we can negotiate more favourable terms. We have had proven success avoiding and reducing these costs for our clients, often resulting in holding off on thousands of euro in extra bills.
