Transform your procurement function with expert strategic guidance
At Accelerate Procurement, we work with organisations to build robust procurement strategies that deliver measurable value.
Whether you’re looking to reduce costs, mitigate risk, improve supplier performance or align procurement with broader business goals, our strategies provide the clarity, structure, and expertise needed to move forward with confidence.
What we do
We partner with our client’s transformation teams, including CPOs, CFOs, procurement and supply chain leaders to design and implement effective procurement strategies tailored to your organisation’s needs, maturity and ambitions. Our service includes:
Current state assessment
We begin by analysing your existing procurement function, including organisational structure, processes, policies, systems, spend data and supplier landscape. This diagnostic stage identifies performance gaps, inefficiencies and untapped opportunities across the end-to-end procurement lifecycle.
Strategic design & target operating model
Using insight from the assessment, we develop a clear strategy and operating model that aligns with your business objectives. This may include:
– Category management frameworks
– Demand management approaches
– Centralised vs decentralised models
– Governance and policy structures
– People capability assessments
– Technology integration planning
We help define what ‘good’ looks like for your procurement team and how to get there in actionable steps.
Opportunity assessment & value delivery planning
We quantify potential savings, efficiency gains, and risk mitigations through opportunity analysis, from strategic sourcing to contract rationalisation and supplier consolidation. We then prioritise these opportunities into a phased roadmap to drive measurable impact.
Implementation support
A strategy is only valuable when executed effectively. We stay engaged beyond the slide deck, supporting delivery with things like:
– Change management expertise
– Stakeholder engagement
– Resource planning
– Procurement transformation programme design
– KPI definition and tracking
Whether you’re building a new procurement function or refreshing an underperforming one, we help you turn strategy into reality.
Procurement Strategy: Our Approach
