Global supplier rationalization in indirect procurement can provide significant hard cost benefits like economies of scale and lower invoice processing costs as well as soft cost benefits like reduced administrative burden. Consolidating multiple suppliers into a single supplier relationship allows for increased leverage in negotiations. Examples show supplier rationalization resulting in an 80% reduction in processed invoices, 40 hours of monthly time savings, and $30,000 in monthly supply cost reductions for one company. Overall, rationalization can save thousands of working days and millions annually through process efficiencies.
