Calyptus Consulting Group announces Multi-Client Study to Measure Cost Savings Achieved through Strategic Sourcing

Calyptus Consulting Group is pleased to announce the launch of its ground-breaking new study aimed at improving procurement practices and cost savings. The study will assess practices among large procurement organizations across industries that result in best-in-class cost savings.

Cambridge, MA (PRWEB) November 20, 2008 -- Many studies have confirmed that a relationship exists between procurement excellence and superior financial performance, but as the current financial downturn forces companies to take a hard look at their expenditures, there is need for further research. Calyptus Consulting Group is pleased to announce the launch of its ground-breaking new study aimed at improving procurement practices to achieve cost savings.

Delivering exponentially more analysis at a fraction of the price of a privately commissioned project, Calyptus' new multi-client study will assess practices among a diverse set of procurement organizations to find the key drivers of competitive differentiation that result in best practice cost savings.

This study will include interviews with executives of each participant organization and collect data on the root causes for success. The content of the survey will be reasonably modified to each client to ensure meaningful results.

Each client will receive a tailored report benchmarking its procurement practices against an industry and geographically diverse group of top companies, using a coding system to maintain confidentiality. This report will describe best practices in people, processes, and systems leading to cost savings.

In order to ensure the highest quality product possible, invitations to join the study are only being extended to the first twenty companies to respond.
