AREAS OF EXPERTISE

PURCHASING

Purchasing is becoming an increasingly strategic part of the modern business. Purchasing professionals are crucial when it comes to procurement policy, optimising costs, and managing supplier relations and the challenges of CSR. A company’s buyers are responsible for devising purchasing strategies in order to maximise value and minimise risk. They analyse markets, anticipate trends and negotiate so that they can directly increase their company’s competitiveness within the market. Their expertise in supply chain management and their ability to make informed decisions mean that purchasing – and the purchaser – are essential components of a company’s operational performance.

SUPPLY CHAIN

Another key business function is the Supply Chain, responsible for all logistics operations, from stock management to production planning and the ultimate distribution of products. The Supply Chain department must optimise operational efficiency, reduce costs, minimise lead times and guarantee constant product availability, all the while complying with and upholding CSR commitments. Supply Chain experts use advanced technological tools and in-depth data analysis to ensure the company is flexible and ready to respond to the changing needs of the market. The Supply Chain has now become a basic element in a company’s overall strategy and plays a central role in its success.

FINANCE

Management control and financial analysis are requisite functions of any company when it comes to monitoring financial performance, data analysis, optimising profitability and reducing costs. They also play a central role in budget planning, resource allocation and strategic decision-making, underpinned by a company-wide CSR policy. These strategic components directly contribute to a company’s financial health, competitiveness and economic performance.

IT

Système d'information

Economic performance is at the heart of the challenges posed by digital technology, which is causing fundamental changes to companies and their business models. IT financial management requires cost modelling to enable the creation of a performance dashboard for the IT management.

Beyond cost managing, a benchmark analysis that draws on an open repository helps to build effective optimisation action plans. Financial simulation means IT cost trajectories can be projected over several years and aligned with the company’s overall strategy. Managing their environmental footprint is a new challenge for IT management. They have a particularly important role to play because of the carbon footprint of their departments, which they are now required to measure and carefully manage.
