Are you having resources to make procurement in a professional way in Sweden?

Was your start in Sweden to hire a Swedish CPO – Not??

An establishment in Sweden quickly entails several purchases, negotiations and contract writing at several different levels. Contract are entered into with customers, premises are to be rented, contract are written. We offer you professional purchasing help in several different areas.

Avoid the consequences

We offer companies to use procurement expertise at the part they miss

We notice that many small and medium companies often pay to much for goods and services not related to the company’s core business.

For example, theres not many business owners who hire a Property Manager when they rent 8 new offices, as well as no one hire a Fleet Manager when the company’s fleet grows and becomes 120.

The consequences is often that the work is carried out with less requirement and focus with the consequenses that the company pays too much. Should the service car cost 8.000 or 12.000 monthly?

Frame agreement

There are many ways to formalize an agreement depending on needs and conditions. What should an agreement contain? If the collaboration does not work as expected, this can have a huge impact on your company.Therefore, it is important to carefully discuss what the collaboration should look like. Some examples that should be clearly specified are the points below:

What is the purpose of the collaboration?
What should be included in the collaboration and what is not included?
Who is responsible for what?
Continuous collaboration or only for a certain period?
Are there end dates?
Is it possible to end the collaboration earlier, in what way?

Who owns the results of the collaboration?
Do you need non-compete clauses?
Can you use subcontractors (and who is responsible if something goes wrong?)
Is a duty of confidentiality needed, to whom?
What happens if someone breaks the cooperation agreement?
How do you resolve any dispute?

Minimizing risks

Agreement and tender controll

By reading hundreds of tender requests and SLA requirements for many years and reflecting these to procure or perform the service in-house, we are very experienced in this area.

Many companies happily use misses to win a tender by praising themselves, many times bidding companies coldly expect to charge well for ancillary services and ambiguities or misses that do not appear in the tender documents.

A mistake or ambiguity in a tender document can easily become costly and the examples are many and often embarrassing, how could that happen?

Through our many years of experience, we can help contracting companies or authorities to minimize risk.

Total Cost Of Ownership (TCO) – What’s your total cost?

The initial costs for the buyer to procure a product can easily appear to be low, but what exactly is the total cost, what are the additional costs, some hidden? Evaluating the total cost means including all relevant costs for acquiring and using the product, seen over the period in which it is used. Only when this analysis has been carried out is it time to expose the product to competition, is there a saving potential and in what way can it be realized in that case?

Our consultants have long experience of reviewing the cost picture and running savings projects.

Adjustment costs

Costs for changing supplier or for adjustments to other replacement, for example adoption costs to be able to use the new solution.

Ongoing costs

Costs for handling the product, such as insurance, operation costs, service and maintenance.

Settlement costs

Costs for phasing out a supplier/product, when terminating a contract or when the contract periode is over, for example recycling costs, shipping.
