Starting point
Significant potential, limited internal capacity
Kymera has substantial purchasing volumes across raw materials, services, packaging and other categories. Its own procurement resources manage day-to-day needs, while specialist capacity was added to examine the wider improvement potential thoroughly.
Approach
Facts before negotiation
Xsperto maps categories, benchmarks current terms, runs enquiries, obtains pricing and identifies alternative suppliers that meet the same quality requirements. The work follows a performance-based "no cure, no pay" model.
Value
- Additional capacity for the internal procurement team
- Stronger decisions through market benchmarking
- A broader supplier and negotiation landscape
- A clear path from identified potential to documented savings
Status
The first opportunity reports indicated promising savings potential and gave Kymera a concrete foundation for the next stage of category work.
