Vendor Management
In the current economic climate, S5 recognises purchasing is now of increasing strategic importance.
Our response is to apply our unparalled international knowledge of local and global vendor options and costs.
The key issue is translating this knowledge to delivery.
Building on established procedures for the development and evaluation of suppliers, we are focusing on defining and implementing strategic cost reduction programmes that are capable of achieving significant cost savings.
Developed structured vendor discipline is in place:
- Identifying their cost structures
- Benchmarking true value for money
- Quantifying and measuring the same
Our international vendor management team are focused and committed to delivering significant savings through a structure capable of delivering value with no compromise on either safety or quality.
