Our proven methodology: Managing costs effectively

Expense Reduction Analysts focuses on non-strategic costs. This is where our franchisees offer valuable services that complement the core competencies of our clients. At the same time we can apply our category know-how to absolutely every enterprise and organization. After all, every business has got overhead costs.  

Our proven methodology makes our services efficient and transparent. At the beginning of a project we clearly define a number of cost categories that we focus on. This allows us to transform our knowledge into tangible results.

The standard process for cost and purchase management projects includes four steps: analysis, procurement, implementation and monitoring. 

Our proven methodology and process

During the analysis phase we will carefully examine the operating costs of our clients and assess saving potentials.

In the next step our consultants propose concrete strategies to reduce costs and negotiate new supplier agreements. This is where our partners can benefit most from our strong market position and our databases. Based on our past experience we can find the best value for money.

When implementing a project we work closely together with our clients and assure a maximum of transparency.

During the monitoring phase, we will ensure that consistent savings are being realized without compromising the quality of the products or services received. The monitoring phase typically lasts 24 to 48 months.

Most of our projects are carried out as joint ventures. In this case a client manager will form a team with one or more analysts that are specialized in various cost categories.

Sharing cost savings on a 50/50 basis with our clients assures that both clients and partners will benefit from their projects. This win-win formula has proved effective and fair for all parties involved.
