Advice for reducing indirect expenses for manufacturers.
A Boost for On-site Experts
Most manufacturing internal procurement teams have a great handle on core expenses. They generate value and know the business inside and out. However, many do not have the manpower or expertise to look in depth at indirect purchasing categories commonly found in production facilities. Seemingly trivial areas like MRO, telecom, small tools, bank fees, facilities maintenance, HVAC, printing, and temp staffing. That’s where ACC comes in. We act as an extension of your procurement team to lower costs and drive revenue, without a single additional sale or fluctuation in headcount for your manufacturing facility.
Create Competitive Tension for Fair Market Pricing in the Manufacturing Space
Lack of competitive tension in the marketplace is an important pitfall for manufacturing companies to avoid, and something we often encounter. Most groups have at least a handful of long-standing, protected vendor relationships. While there are merits to having close vendor ties, these relationships create a complacency that causes companies to miss out on significant savings as well as high-value offerings from non-incumbent suppliers.
ACC’s cost reduction services for manufacturing companies achieve the lowest prices with the best quality services.
