Cost Savings

Reach your cost reduction goals.  One of the services we offer is developing a specific plan to meet your cost objectives by working closely with your purchasing, planning and cost accounting departments.  

The plan outlines:

  • Part by part cost targets

  • Step by step methods to accomplish each reduction

  • Time phased schedule for achieving the plan

  • Plan assumes only 80% of the savings will be reached

Benefit:  You now have a proactive plan for reaching your cost reduction goals.   Sometimes only small changes yield great results.  Our plan pays for itself in a short time.

Why SMS?  In 25 years we've come up against every imaginable obstacle to achieve cost savings.  With our sourcing and negotiation skills we are confident we can construct a plan for even the smallest company and any industry. 

Executives are always pushing purchasing departments to reduce costs.  Purchasing departments usually reply with "We're doing the best we can!" and they are...  with their current knowledge and resources.   But, is negotiating 1-2% each time you place a new order really getting the savings you need or deserve?  We give you the knowledge, tools and confidence you need achieve your goals.

We have a proven track record of developing plans that achieve significant cost reductions.  Just ask our clients.

Call (978) 549-7884 today to find out how we can start saving you money.

 

   After the plan is in place, we offer continued support, training and contract negotiations in addition to professional services in executing the plan when required.
