Source One can leverage high education buying power, its cost reduction resources, and strategic sourcing best practices to help educational institutions battle the financial pressure of minimal education funding.
Whether you represent a college, university, vocational, technical or specialty school; are non-profit, for-profit, private, state or a public school, we can help.
Source One’s strategic sourcing methods allow higher education institutions already running lean to become more efficient and produce cost-savings in their purchasing departments. We help reduce current reliance on tuition hikes by examining higher education budgets to find hard-dollar savings. Our sourcing professionals will work as an extension of purchasing departments in charge of higher education spending to analyze current spending habits, evaluate savings opportunities, implement supplier agreements, and audit invoices after savings are achieved.
Through our proven strategic sourcing process, we are able to obtain an average of 18% savings across all categories we source. A small sampling of spend categories in which we have reduced higher education spending include:
Source One works in tandem with your educational institution’s in-house staff. Your experienced staff, combined with our decades of experience and market intelligence databases work together to achieve the maximum amount of savings possible in your higher education spend.
Successful Sourcing Initiatives
Leading institutions and companies have looked to strategic sourcing to help them remain on top. Source One has successfully worked with both clients and suppliers to maximize buying potential and achieve best-in-class pricing. Our cross-industry experience provides us with market intelligence outside of the higher education space and allows us to leverage that information into savings opportunities.
Strategic Sourcing Testimonials
Low Risk, No Budget Solutions
Source One understands that finding a budget to pay for a consulting firm can be difficult for any college or university. We make an effort to understand the unique business goals of each of our clients and we are able to adjust our fee structure based on your needs. The most popular method that we are engaged on is a contingency-based strategic sourcing initiative; in which Source One is only compensated for a percentage of hard dollar savings after they are actually achieved.
