Supplier Consolidation: How Many Is Too Many?

Too many suppliers might be costing you more than you think. Consolidating could unlock big savings—if you have the right strategy.

Managing a large supplier base seems like a flexible approach, but it often leads to:

• Higher costs—missing out on volume discounts and preferred terms.
• More complexity—hard-to-track contracts, relationships, and payments.
• Wasted time—endless invoices, approvals, and administrative work.

The Role of Procurement Consulting

This is where procurement consulting makes a real impact. By analyzing your current supplier base and identifying opportunities to consolidate, procurement experts can:

• Unlock cost savings through smarter supplier agreements.
• Streamline processes to save time and reduce complexity.
• Improve supplier relationships for better outcomes.
