6. What Exactly Do We Do?
We will analyze areas where our client partners are not comfortable that their current contract is not providing the best value for their dollar.
If savings can be found through the current supplier, (or with a new supplier), we will give you specific recommendations for saving money - without sacrificing quality or service.
We may negotiate with our client's current suppliers, or we may recommend new vendors. The final decision always belongs to our client partners.
We offer extensive knowledge of the marketplace and the ability to recommend the most advantageous suppliers and services for our clients.

7. What We Avoid!
We do not pretend to be experts in your industry. Nor do we evaluate employees, staffing levels or efficiency of our client's personnel. All of our negotiations with suppliers and recommendations are held strictly confidential. We do not finger-point, and if there are areas the client does not wish to address, for any reason, we will respect their wishes. We will not suggest they cut salaries or staff. To the contrary, we are careful to encourage employees to be more cost-conscious, without being perceived as a threat to them.
WE DO SELL PRODUCTS OR SERVICES. WE ACCEPT NO COMPENSATION OR REMUNERATION FROM ANY SUPPLIERS, AT ANYTIME. 7

10. Budget Management
Companies typically use prior year cost to project future year
budgets, why this is a problem:
Complacency – Most companies simply increase there annual operating budget 3% a year to cover increases in services. This is a common mistake, by renegotiating there contracts, this figure can be decreased.
Stability – Because companies never stabilize their ever increasing over head cost, most never achieve their Bugdet projections.
Growth - 10% annual growth is what most companies strive for. However, all good budget managers know that is achieved not only through an increase in revenue, but in properly policing expenses as well.

introduction. This way we can ensure there is the
professional courtesy and respect for all parties
involved.
