In today’s rapidly changing society, it is essential to ensure and facilitate flexibility and adaptability in the planning and execution of tenders.

Our consultants possess extensive experience and deep expertise in both public and private tenders, creating effective solutions for our clients.

Sourcing strategy

A strong sourcing strategy focuses on creating competitive advantages and value for the organization while supporting its overall strategy and business objectives.

Establishing and maintaining a sourcing strategy, requires that several elements must be considered:

  • Business strategy
  • Market analysis
  • Cost analysis
  • Cost targets
  • Supplier strategy
  • Due diligence
  • Risk analysis
  • Risk management
Category management

Category management is a continuous process with the goal of annual value creation and cost reduction within the organization’s sourcing activities. The categories should reflect the diversity of the organization’s supplier market.

  • Build category structure
  • Identify attributes
  • Define objectives
  • Identify drivers
  • Create a plan
  • Implement the plan
  • Continuous improvement

Trifid can assist in identifying category attributes, costs, and value drivers for each category, and subsequently help enhance the value of each category.

Tendering

The impact of conducting an effective tender process is significant. It is often easy to underestimate the importance of selecting the right approach to the supplier market. That may prevent the organization from acquiring maximum value from the process.

Our consultants have extensive experience in handling tenders and operational procurement processes in both the private and public sectors. They possess profound expertise within complex processes in large organizations and can assist with:

  • Planning the tender process
  • Managing and executing the tender
  • Creating and quality-assuring tender documents
  • Publishing tenders
  • Leading cross functional teams in evaluation and negotiations, including developing templates and structures for evaluation, as well as training participants

To us, a successful tender is characterized by high quality, strong collaboration, efficient processes, and an end product that results in a contract tailored for the needs of the organization in both present and future.

Contract and Supplier relationship management

Contract and supplier relationship management is a crucial tool for ensuring that the intentions of the agreement are fulfilled. It is easy to underestimate the importance of both parties working closely together to maximize benefits for all involved parties.

At Trifid, we have extensive experience in establishing and utilizing tools to ensure effective management of supplier relationships and contracts. We have the expertise to conduct the right analysis, develop and maintain the necessary governance structure and mechanisms.
