In many instances we can be seen as a profit centre, by saving more than we cost. Typically we save our clients at least 8x our fees through optimising supplier contracts and reducing overall supplier costs, in parallel with implementing industry specific best-in-class governance.
Outsource
Why not outsource your vital procurement tasks and platforms to BridgePro? We offer tailored service level guarantees focused on our client’s needs, rather than taking on costly fixed cost resource requiring ongoing management.
On Demand
Take our On Demand service to help with ad hoc projects, such as cost reduction or governance, rather than paying for a full time employee. We will be significantly less due to being more efficient, and only charge for what you need.

New Supplier
Purchasing & Onboarding
New Supplier Purchasing and Onboarding is managed through the RFP process, including commercial and contract negotiation. Reducing cost, and operational, commercial and contractural risk, through review and benchmarking of existing supplier contracts. Providing full procurement lifecycle management, from supplier discovery to contract signature.
Contract Negotiation
We look after the contract negotiation process, tracking and managing renewals to avoid costly auto renewals, and manage the full end-to-end supplier onboarding and governance (ESG).
Purchase Orders
We can provide our own Purchase Order (PO) platform or work with yours. We have experience of most ERPs and PO tools and will work with your suppliers and finance team to ensure seamless integration.
We build simple workflows to ensure a positive employee experience and supplier engagement. We can operate in a mandated procurement structure (although we prefer non mandated), and we believe that aside from savings and minimising risk, employee/supplier feedback is critical to success.
In Partnership
We work in partnership with Viio, who provide intelligent tools to manage and benchmark software spend, as well as proactively managing contract renewals. Viio also help to negotiate SaaS spend and key to delivering BridgePro’s overall procurement strategy to it’s clients.
“BridgePro’s professionalism and commitment to delivering value make them a trusted partner, and our shared clients appreciate the clarity and results this collaboration brings to their procurement process”
