Procurement

Using procurement to unlock hidden value

Procurement and supply chain functions manage significant spend and keep goods and services moving. Yet despite their critical role, these functions are often under-leveraged and underfunded.

Too many functions get stuck in reactive mode, slowed by manual processes, fragmented data, poor planning and limited influence over strategic decisions. The result is lost value, unmanaged risk, and missed opportunities to drive commercial outcomes and innovation.

At KordaMentha, we help organisations shift procurement and supply chain from a cost centre to a value partner to better support your organisational outcomes.

We work with you to:

identify sustainable savings
reduce risk exposure
build capability and influence.

Our approach is hands-on, and outcome focused. We bring commercial acumen, practical experience, and a clear understanding of how procurement and supply chain fits into the broader business context.

We support you across the full lifecycle, from spend and operational diagnostics and opportunity sizing, to operating and service delivery model design, implementation, and deal execution. We also understand that these functions do not work in isolation. That is why we integrate supply chain capability, linking procurement with logistics, inventory, and supplier performance to unlock full value.

What you can expect

faster speed to market and lower total cost of ownership
stronger risk management and resilience
streamlined operations and smarter inventory control
better data and analytics for real-time decisions
strategic uplift – making procurement a driver of transformation
stronger supplier relationships and commercial outcomes
happier stakeholders with better service and delivery.

We don’t do cookie-cutter solutions. We tailor strategies to your goals, constraints, and operating environment. We think outside the box and call it like it is – independent, honest, and practical.

Whether you need to cut costs fast, streamline suppliers, optimise contracts, or build efficiency into your procurement and supply chain model, we bring the right mix of insight and action to make it happen. And we don’t just deliver – we build capability. Every engagement includes knowledge transfer, so your team can keep improving long after we’ve stepped away.
