If your business operates on a net profit margin of 10%, a reduction in your costs of even 5% could increase your profits by almost 50%. We can help you achieve these numbers in a low-risk manner and embed these efficiencies in your business to sustain future growth economically and environmentally.

We will carry out a full third party spend analysis to identify innovative cost reduction opportunities and agree a range of risk appropriate targets with you to optimise value-add to your business. 

We will develop a suite of Key Performance Indicators to measure performance gains and to ensure that supplier Continuous Improvement initiatives are embedded and deliver value. 

 We will be flexible in agreeing a very competitive fee basis with a gain-share agreement on future savings if appropriate.

·   Category Management 

·   Commercial negotiation 

·   Policies and Procedures

Negotiation is a life skill which we use in our personal as well as our working lives. Anser has developed a range of training courses addressing the key elements of a successful negotiation from pre-planning to closing. We use leading practice principles and techniques to underpin an interactive fun learning environment, including bespoke roleplays designed specifically for your business or organisation. 

These courses will ideally be delivered in a face to face environment but we also have extensive experience in reconfiguring training to deliver optimally in an online environment.

We are currently developing a range of negotiation courses. In the interim please contact us regarding your bespoke training needs.
