Case Study - National Health Care Provider

The procurement department of this large multi-site organisation required support to manage the telecoms function and the group finance director was looking to achieve savings that would be immediately reflected in bottom line profits.

We analysed disk based billing from the two existing suppliers and our reports identified a number of areas for savings.

The first was to move to the optimum tariff with each of the two existing suppliers, the second was to consolidate traffic with one of the suppliers and the third was to change suppliers all together. The various options were projected to make savings of 12 percent, 35 percent and 40 percent. The savings equated to a 2.9 percent increase in pre-tax profits!
