Collaborative procurement can provide many benefits to organisations by leveraging the combined spend and expertise of members.

OrangeMaple will ensure that partners have the right fit before proceeding focusing on; the right buys, anit-trust counter measures, protection of confidential information, increased communication, common standards and best practices.

Understanding why each partner wants to be involved should affect the make up of the consortium and its aims (eg. Loose collective, regional purchasing agency, vertical, horizontal etc). 

OrangeMaple’s collaborative approach will ensure members interests but also concers are understood and all members engaged.  The strategy will be based on category or contract approach that identifies the quick wins and strategic priorities fo the group.

Finally, negotiating the commercial agreement and identifying savings is only part of the equation.  OrangeMaple will  ensure there are effective supplier performance management controls and measures in place to ensure a long term solution.
