Our end-to-end outsourcing and procurement practice has over 100 successful programmes under its belt and advised on over £3 billion of spend for diverse blue-chip clients in the public and private sector.
Through this experience our clients have access to data, innovation, talent and our knowledge of developments in supplier systems as well as supplier performance on actual contracts. This combination of empiricism and pragmatism enables you to turn CRE services into enterprise outcomes.
The right operating model can be the difference to success in theory and success in reality.
Leveraging Incendium’s operational expertise provides CRE teams with confidence to develop a supplier ‘architecture’ capable of delivering on CRE strategy and enterprise ambition.
Sourcing the right services at the right quality and price is mission critical.
We help you balance dynamic and often conflicting priorities to develop sourcing strategy and delivery which is defendable internally and dependable externally.
The day-to-day reality of ‘keeping the lights on’ can wreak havoc on CRE’s ability to drive more visible innovation and value.
Our procurement experts can remove this burden, bringing their experience to bear on avoiding the many frontline pitfalls associated with complex procurement. Either through managing the entire process, or in collaboration with in-house teams, we ensure the right questions are asked to get the right results within the right budget and timeframe.
Ensuring contracts are managed effectively post-procurement is key to minimising disruption and maximising return on investment.
Through its senior team and network of contractors, Incendium can provide required pairs of safe hands to ensure that both new and revised models land effectively, negating the waste of time or money and optimising efficiency and ROI.
The reality is, things go wrong and relationships can become fraught. But undoing what can be years of work can have far-reaching and costly consequences.
We have a strong track record in conducting diplomatic negotiations that defuse conflict in a way that repairs rather than unravels complex programmes of procurement and change.
Credibility rarely comes from what we believe and almost always from what we can prove.
Incendium brings the expertise and the data to provide evidence-based benchmarking of performance levels against the market. This shifts the conversation from ‘we think’ to ‘we know’ and consequently raises CRE’s credibility from good to great.
The adage, ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ is famous because it’s smart.
As contracts approach term, we work with you to assess which suppliers remain fit for purpose, address gaps where replacements are needed and turn a robust plan into the continuation of effective business as usual with no disruption in service.
