One of Efficio’s key areas of focus is in Supplier Relationship management. Its SRM methodology is proven across sectors and is tailored to individual requirements.

Efficio supports organisations where:

• There is no formal SRM process, or a number of different approaches and processes across the business.
• Supplier managers are confused about the process and its objects, as well as lack of required skills and tools.
• Key suppliers are underperforming, with no consistent way of monitoring or resolving the issues.
• Strategic supplier relationships have deteriorated back into a transactional mode.
• Strategic suppliers find the relationship difficult or frustrating.

Efficio has listed the key challenges its customers primarily face: 

• Sustainability 

Efficio’s solution: Track and validate invoiced prices and specifications against rates throughout the contract to present a real understanding of bottom-line savings. Provide supplier oriented dashboards for quick decision making, quickly summarising Big Data in impactful ways.

• Efficiency

Efficio’s solution: Create sophisticated technology to process the increasing amounts of data, improving the quality, accuracy and speed of the analytics produced.

• Repeatability

Efficio’s solution: Being able to use the same application to repeat a strategic sourcing process offers the ability to accelerate the process of resourcing the category. 

• Benchmarkability

Efficio’s solution: Store all data from OA to ongoing management providing a vast amount of information which can be classified for benchmarking and comparative purposes. The Efficio practitioner expertise is integral to interpreting raw data into valuable models.

Efficio aims to make procurement functions twice as effective and empower them to deliver more with their own teams to become high-value generating functions for their businesses.
