Are you interested in our supplier negotiation service? We help businesses benchmark their current suppliers, research alternative sourcing options and improve their purchasing position.
Before negotiating with an existing supplier, we first look at the market. We research comparable suppliers, request quotations where appropriate and compare pricing, MOQs, lead times and commercial terms.
This gives you a clearer picture of:
What the current market price looks like
Whether your existing supplier is competitively priced
What alternative suppliers are available
What purchasing terms you could potentially improve
What options you have if your current supplier cannot meet your requirements
Depending on the project, we can help you review and negotiate:
Unit pricing
MOQ
Payment terms
Lead times
Packaging costs
Tooling and development costs
Sample costs
Shipping terms
Production terms
1. Review your current supplier
We look at your current pricing, products, volumes and purchasing terms.
2. Research the market
We identify alternative manufacturers, suppliers or wholesalers and collect comparable quotations where possible.
3. Benchmark your current pricing
We compare your existing supplier’s offer with available market alternatives.
4. Identify your options
You can then see whether it makes sense to stay with your current supplier, ask for better terms, or consider another supplier.
5. Negotiate where appropriate
Using the market information and alternative options, we can approach the existing supplier and request improved pricing or terms.
The goal is not simply to find the lowest price. It is to give you market visibility, alternatives and stronger purchasing leverage so you can make better procurement decisions.
We help you find out what else is available — and use that information to improve your purchasing position.
