Procurement support without fixed headcount?
The solution is ON-DEMAND.
The procurement requirements of an organisation are continually changing and sometimes difficult to predict. Growth, projects, absence, recruitment challenges and stretch targets cause challenges in managing resource, expertise and delivery, and the traditional approach of hiring interims to fill the gap can sometimes just take on fixed cost rather than a project delivery outcome.
At the same time, planning and implementing a complex change project where external partners are vetted, tenders issued, presentations made – and all of this before the successful bidder gets anywhere near to starting any actual work – can seem like overkill, especially when you need support NOW.
We have created a suite of easy to access services which allow clients to benefit from our group consulting expertise, knowledge and flexible capacity as and when its needed – with organisations only paying for precisely what is required. The outcome: Less cost, maximum impact.
ON-DEMAND puts you in control:
- Project-by-project
- Fixed cost
- Optional outcome-based incentivisation
- Sector/category expertise and leveraging Procura Consulting knowledge
- On-site or remote (or an optimum mix)
Benefits of ON-DEMAND:
- Ready-to-go … turn on and off
- Switch fixed expense for variable
- Pay only for what is needed
- Quickly leverage expertise and knowledge
- Output-based deliverables
- Flexible resourcing = right-sizing for procurement teams
Examples of ON-DEMAND delivery projects:
- Get Cost-reduction projects over the line and savings secured
- One-off sourcing projects completed successfully
- Specific negotiation projects completed
- Brexit planning approach underway
- Spend analytics up and running
- Global sourcing approaches defined and progressing
We deliver. It is that simple.

Procura Highly Commended for Best New Consultancy
2020 marked the 23rd MCA Awards, an important event in the consulting calendar and a benchmark for quality within the consulting industry. The Management Consultancies Association (MCA) is the body that represents management consultancy firms in the UK.
Procura attended the virtual black-tie event for the first time this year, along with hundreds of professionals from across the UK consulting industry, already delighted to have been shortlisted as Finalists for not one, but two categories – Best New Consultancy and Commercial Excellence.
The digital event co-hosted by MCA CEO Tamzen Isacsson and BBC presenter Jeremy Vine handed out a total of 22 awards and Procura were thrilled to be awarded ‘Highly Commended’ for Best New Consultancy, especially when their fellow finalists were such strong global contenders.
Richard Mcintosh, Managing Partner at Procura says: “The MCA Awards shone light on the current crisis and stated the UK is going through “the biggest economic shock since 1720,” but also highlighted the Consultancy industry’s potential to help both public and private sector clients meet the challenges of today headfirst”.
The Procura Group provide several services to clients, Procurement Cost Reduction, Procurement Transformation Consulting, Spend Analytics, Group Purchasing Frameworks and Procurement & Supply Chain Recruitment Solutions, all of which can assist organisations as the economic situation recovers and businesses re-set for profitability. We would be very happy to talk through your current challenges and objectives and share our experiences.
