Harnessing the potential of your technology partners

Putting your business at the centre
Technology partners and the services they provide should be enablers helping you to deliver on your business goals. However, many organisations' reality is that the deals in place with their key partners become increasingly uncompetitive and operationally inflexible, making it difficult and expensive to execute your IT strategy to meet evolving priorities. This often results in a drop in service quality and escalating costs, and can ultimately lead to dysfunctional relationships with your partners.
​
The Sourcing Advisory offers a truly independent service, delivering innovative sourcing processes to secure the best partners, commercial models, service models and contracts for your business. We're very proud of our track-record in negotiating deals that deliver outstanding value not only on day one, but right throughout the contract term.
​
We adopt a 'sleeves-up' approach to working with your teams, applying our rich experience to build pragmatic solutions that put your business priorities at the centre and set you up for success.
​
Whether you're embarking on a major technology investment or need help with transforming an existing relationship that's not working for you, we're confident that we can deliver for you.

Technology Sourcing & Outsourcing
We'll design a sourcing approach that will drive the outcomes that are important for your business. Working closely with your technology and commercial teams we will lead the process from sourcing and supplier strategy, through requirements and RFP build, and onto evaluation, selection, negotiation and successful contract completion.
Outsource Contract Transformation
Many outsource contracts are simply not fit for purpose in today's dynamic environment. We'll assess your current contract and service performance and identify where it's driving the wrong outcomes. We'll then devise and execute practical strategies that will transform the commercial and operational landscape for you.

Technology Sourcing Strategy
The success of your organisation will be either underpinned or undermined by the effectiveness and value you leverage from your technology partners. We can help with strategies that maximise the potential of your supplier ecosystem and help to ensure that flexibility, efficiency, cost of delivery and innovation become core priorities.
Supplier Relationship Counselling
There are untold pressures on both sides of a major client / supplier relationship. At times these result in entrenched positions and long running disputes which are harmful to your business. We get to the crux of complex issues and navigate a way to equitable solutions that move the relationship to surer footing and stronger outcomes for both parties.
