  Here's how our cost-saving process works:

We understand that your time is valuable. We also understand that if you had the time, resources and staff to devote to rigorous expense reduction, you would not have a need for our services. We are accustomed to doing the "heavy lifting": data collection, analysis, RFPs, savings plan implementation and monitoring. And, because of our experience in these areas, we require very little of your time. We work quietly, quickly and efficiently to save you as much money as possible. Contacting Alliance Cost Containment is the best cost savings idea there is! Put our proprietary cost savings techniques to work for you today.

Here's a step-by-step overview of how our process works.

1. Preliminary cost savings analysis

We will conduct a confidential, no-cost analysis of your purchases to quickly estimate the cost savings opportunities that are available to you. We calculate our savings analysis by benchmarking your expenses with proprietary purchasing data in our extensive Knowledge Base. Once we have completed our analysis, we will review our conclusions with you. The savings analysis is a critical step in determining, mutually, whether it is worth the time to proceed with an engagement agreement. In case you're wondering, we analyze these areas.

2. Client engagement

We work with our clients to confirm which expense areas to review, identify any supplier sensitivities and constraints, and establish a commencement date and Project Timeline. Also, at this point, the client has the option to start utilizing our pre-certified national suppliers, who offer group purchasing pricing, volume incentives and services that many companies cannot access individually.

3. Expense history analysis

We compile and format historical expense data into a customized report. This provides you a categorized report of internal purchasing activities and also enables us to prioritize our savings "action plan."

4. Request For Proposal (RFP) management

We work closely with your purchasing department to manage the RFP process for the expense categories which fall within the scope of our engagement. Our RFP process is customized to identify your actual purchasing patterns, service needs and reporting requirements. We strongly encourage our clients to include non-incumbent suppliers in the bidding process.

5. Group purchasing opportunities

We give you an immediate opportunity to realize the benefits of our group purchasing contracts. These contracts are with leading national suppliers who offer deep discounts and economic incentives based on ACC’s vast purchasing power.

6. Final presentation

We document the total cost savings and efficiency improvements and present a detailed report to your management team.

7. Implementation

We arrange and facilitate supplier meetings with your key employees, establish key performance measures for the suppliers, and implement the reduced-pricing schedules for your purchased supplies and services.

8. Supplier management

We schedule business review meetings with your team at regular intervals to make sure you are realizing the full cost savings and are taking advantage of best practices enabled by the vendors.
