1. Cost Negotiation
Cost Negotiation is necessary to reduce the cost of acquisition by achieving a lower price. Negotiation can involve a number of ploys and tactics but regardless of the approach taken, preparation is the key. Following are our key benefits during negotiation:
-
We have a team of experienced experts that can negotiate the best terms and costs for your business.
-
We research multiple factories and raw materials before hand.
-
Majority of the times, our network of factories already provide us with the best rates.
-
Our 12+ years of expertise in negotiation helps us in knowing the product costs easily.
2. Product Consolidation
While manufacturing a single product, multiple parts and raw materials are needed. In many cases, buying it from one supplier is rather expensive than buying it from many suppliers which improves quality and time to procure them. But in some cases buying it from a single supplier can be cost effective as you'll get discount rates. We will get in touch with a number of suppliers to determine the available components they have, how much they charge as well as the quality of the parts. After which, we will either recommend consolidating services or getting all the components you need from one supplier.
