Global Material Sourcing

Costs and Savings

We can make significant savings on a number of manufactured components. We define significant as a 25% to 50% saving.

Costs and Savings

UK manufacturers will only be competitive if they are purchasing their materials at prices that are globally competitive. Global Material Sourcing (GMS) applies a unique methodology for ensuring that the components that you are using are being sourced at the most competitive prices to your specification. Not only has this methodology been proven in the UK, it is also being used in Australia and New Zealand, USA, Middle East and Japan.

A typical outcome that can be expected where we are asked to look at 10 different product types are:

• 3 or 4 items - not economic to source overseas
• 3 or 4 items - there are savings but not material
• 3 or 4 items - significant economies to be gained

We define significant as between 25% and 50% savings. We initially focus in on the "significant" gains and then as the business develops we take on the more marginal items.
