KEY PROCUREMENT INSIGHTS COVERED

Strategic Sourcing Guide to Six Sigma Training Procurement

Overview

A changing ecosystem within the Consultancy market also affects the procurement process, cost dynamics and supplier attractiveness for the buyers of Six Sigma Training. The concept of virtual firms is getting popular. By placing the entire infrastructure in cloud services, and utilizing a small number of physical offices, Six Sigma Training suppliers are trying to cut their costs and developing cost competitive propositions for buyers.

Most clients now prefer splitting a single project among different vendors as it enables them to allocate parts of a project to specialized professional firms and keep the supplier base wide enough. Some clients adopt this strategy to understand the capability and performance of individual supplier and then pick one or a smaller set of suppliers for future contract opportunities.

Certain non-compliance scandals in the broader professional services industry has pushed both clients and suppliers to put in proper processes and protocols that reduce non-compliance, protect data and information and demonstrate ethical business practices.
