Solution
Using the Expert360 network, Questas engaged a Procurement Expert to manage the transformation of their procurement team post acquisition.
The Expert moved quickly to analyse the current state of business and understand the challenges Questas was facing. Using the analysis from the diagnostic, they renegotiated and standardised contracts, implemented national umbrella agreements.
Impact
The expert made a strong impact on Questas, managing and leading a procurement diagnostic and transformation.
This included:
- Annualised savings were in excess of 10% of EBITDA.
- Delivered >8x return of Expert fee.
- The pressure to reduce staff numbers during the Covid 19 crisis was reduced.
