Savings on purchases
Increased internal customer satisfaction and improved supplier relationships
A leading passenger transport company in Mexico faced the challenge of restructuring its sourcing and procurement processes to eliminate inefficiencies. Partnering with Sintec Consulting, they successfully redesigned their organization, implemented more effective purchase controls, and achieved significant savings on purchases. Additionally, this transformation enhanced internal customer satisfaction and strengthened relationships with suppliers, contributing to a more collaborative and efficient supply chain. This holistic approach not only streamlined procurement but also positioned the company for sustained operational success.
“An unclear structure and lack of strategic procurement plans were undermining efficiency and savings potential”.
The company faced significant challenges in its sourcing and procurement areas, where there was no clear distinction between the two functions, both operating under a centralized structure. This lack of differentiation, coupled with limited fraud prevention controls and an absence of strategic procurement intentions, created inefficiencies and hindered the ability to achieve meaningful cost savings. These issues ultimately impacted the organization’s operational efficiency and purchasing effectiveness.
The company partnered with Sintec Consulting to resolve inefficiencies in its procurement and sourcing processes. By redesigning its organizational structure and enhancing purchasing strategies, the client achieved significant savings and operational improvements.
The implementation of the new procurement and sourcing processes delivered significant improvements. A 3% savings on purchases was achieved through order consolidation, while internal customer satisfaction and supplier relationships were strengthened. These changes enhanced operational efficiency, streamlined decision-making, and fostered stronger collaboration across departments, setting the foundation for sustained procurement success. The results have positioned the company for future growth and competitive advantage.
