About PML

Procurement Management Ltd does exactly what our name suggests... we manage procurement, but with a specific focus on bringing efficiencies and cost savings to the arena of ‘non-core’ procurement.

‘Non-core’ procurement?
This is the spend on all of those items and services essential to the running of your business, but which are not direct inputs to your main output.

Every business wishes to maximise profits and profitability – that is a given.
The two prime contributors to this goal of increased sales and reduced costs are also givens.

As every business knows, if the net profit is 10%, then to add £1,000 to the bottom line takes £10,000 of additional sales, yet the same result can be achieved by saving just £1,000 on the cost side.

All well managed businesses pay a great deal of attention to the spend on their core inputs, be that manpower, materials or physical assets. Where very few businesses have the time, the available resource or the expertise is in the plethora of non-core items and services which, whilst indirect by definition, are nonetheless essential to the operation of a business. This is what we specialise in. This is what we are good at . . . ‘non-core’ is our core activity.

Procurement Management Ltd provides clients with the commercial assurance of actually knowing, perhaps for the very first time, that they are buying non-core both efficiently and effectively, and without compromising on the quality of supply received.

By applying our methodology, we release additional funds to contribute to business development or to simply increase profitability – and there is no cost for this – zero, nein, zilch, niente, nangwa, nani, nono, naanikwaw, neyn... so, what is the down-side?... where’s the risk?... well there isn’t any...it really is as clean and simple as that.

How do we achieve this?
Through our affiliation with Global Procurement Group we have unparalleled commercial leverage on both price and performance. We work only with top-tier suppliers, and in partnership with Global Procurement we continually monitor, benchmark and review both price and performance.

It is all about delivering best practice at best price... Nothing new in that?... Well yes, there is, in that we operate across such a broad range of non-core categories and bring many pre-negotiated guarantees of savings, plus the all-essential assurances of performance... providing excellence of supply in the typically defocused arena of non-core procurement.

We will save you money, that is assured, but it is so much more than just cost reduction — that is what makes the difference

The methodology we apply in achieving this is refreshingly different. In addition to there being no cost to the client and no contract tying clients in to us, many of the savings are guaranteed in advance, plus we work in a totally transparent manner, and the whole process of non-core procurement is rationalised, monitored, reviewed and controlled.
