WHO WE WORK WITH
Financial Services
Financial Services solutions for short-term and long-term success
Financial Services procurement functions face multiple challenges that can only be addressed by an effective operating model and appropriate capability. Whilst cost is always a focus, it is vital that the function delivers and is recognised, for creating organisational value. To compound the challenges, most financial services procurement functions have people, process and technology constraints.
In recent years, Financial Services organisations have asked their procurement functions to navigate through significant supply chain challenges – far beyond their traditional scope. These trials have included navigating the shifting sands of outsourcing regulations, managing the supply chain impact of Covid and other world events, and reacting to the changing face of banking presented through emerging technologies and disruptors.
The unique challenges of delivering procurement and the broadening focus of supply chain and supplier considerations provides Financial Services procurement leaders with many opportunities to bring procurement to the forefront.
We understand the issues and opportunities and have the experience and the tools to deliver pragmatic solutions that will elevate the function, create short-term value as well as laying the foundation for long-term success and genuine business value.
