Together with your procurement department, INVERTO identifies potential areas for optimization in all demand categories and processes.

 

Identification

Inflation and the explosion of energy prices do not mean that companies are defenseless against all price increases. Our teams have effective levers at their disposal to ward off unjustified price increases and exploit all potential for cost stabilization. In addition, our strategic approaches can help you to structure your procurement more efficiently so that you can once again take advantage of opportunities to reduce costs in the future.

 

Take the right action now

Act Fast

Indirect requirements and investments should be analyzed in terms of their necessity in the current situation. Strategies similar to Zero Based Budgeting can be used for this purpose. In addition, INVERTO has fast -track concepts that can be used to define and prioritize areas of focus within a short period of time.

Supplier days are an effective way of addressing the current situation and agreeing fair conditions with your top suppliers.
