An Introduction to ValueAdmin ValueAdmin
is focused on providing bottom line cost savings to business. VALUEADMIN
achieves savings through a consortium approach to the procurement of a range of non core goods and services such as Office
Supplies, Travel, Print, Express Freight and Couriers, Telecommunications and
other essential supplies. VALUEADMIN
members gain the benefit of consortium pricing with top tier providers without
the obligation to purchase in volume. Consequently
members achieve cost savings in the range
of 10 -25% on the purchase price of
indirect goods and services. Members also reduce their time and cost involved in
negotiating and monitoring contracts with suppliers.

service is free to members and we offer a no obligation detailed benchmarking
analysis to establish an accurate indication of the savings available. VALUEADMIN

ValueAdmin: 1.
Identify
which areas you would like to reduce costs 2.
Ask your
ValueAdmin Account Manager to carry out the ValueAdmin Benchmarking 3.
If the
resulting benchmarking results and report are to your satisfaction we introduce
you to the ValueAdmin supplier and arrange for an account to be established. An Introduction ValueAdmin Benchmarking: The
objectives of benchmarking: The
benchmarking is offered to ValueAdmin Members in order to provide a direct
comparison of their current spend on indirect goods and services against the
pricing structure available to them through the ValueAdmin Suppliers. The
benchmarking examines various aspects of your spend and existing contractual
benefits in each ValueAdmin category. By
analysing a representative sample of your spend at a detailed line by line level
we can more accurately identify the actual spend differential between ValueAdmin
Providers and your current arrangements. This
determines your potential total actual savings for these items. Why
does ValueAdmin perform this service? ValueAdmin
offers a benchmarking service to ensure you have the information at your
disposal before deciding to purchase through ValueAdmin Suppliers. The benchmarking is comprehensive and ensures a fair
representation of your spend is reviewed. What
does the benchmarking show? The
benchmarking compares your actual procurement expenditure against the same goods
and services as if purchased through ValueAdmin Suppliers at the ValueAdmin
rates. In performing the
benchmarking we compare line-by-line your purchase price for each item and
extend this by the volume purchased. The
report may also suggest alternative purchasing approaches that could provide
further savings for your organisation Price
savings are only one element of the ValueAdmin value proposition – there are
substantial additional benefits, both process and contractual driven, that have
been negotiated as part of the ValueAdmin deal with Suppliers.
Some of these cannot always be quantified but Members
experience significant further value. How
can these savings be achieved? The savings
identified by the benchmarking are those that your business can achieve by
purchasing with ValueAdmin Suppliers. This
reflects the purchasing power of the ValueAdmin consortium and does not
necessarily reflect on the ability of procurement staff in your organisation.
The deals negotiated by ValueAdmin would be difficult for Individual
Member organisations to negotiate. Call 613
