BridgePro have acted as the group's in-house procurement function for over five years, supporting both the IT and Property team to ensure they're purchasing competitively through best in class suppliers.
The Challenge
Without access to critical benchmark data, Watches of Switzerland were unable to determine if they were paying the right price for maintenance and installation services.
Given the nature of their business, quality of service was critical, and special attention was required to ensure stakeholders were well informed and an integral part of the decision making. We were contracted to implement our PaaS service to deliver these critical projects.
There were no savings or ROI targets set as the objective was to improve supplier efficiency, SLAs, and performance, so reducing price would be an added bonus. There was also no contract management for Electrical, Security, Health and Safety, subject to auto renewals and supplier contract terms.
The Solution
BridgePro assigned procurement experts to manage project delivery for Property, Facilities Management, and IT review.
The first step for all projects was to complete the discovery and analysis. For property services we tracked existing renewals and commenced with simple efficient RFPs and benchmarking exercises to determine how competitive the incumbent is and if there are alternative/new suppliers in the market.
