Purchasing Agencies

Service Description

YOUR TREATMENT The hospitality industry has spawned dozens of Purchasing Agencies and Consortiums over the last few years. They come in many shapes and sizes, with varying operational methods and payment principles. The one thing they all have in common is that they promise great savings – but will they work for your business? Your Expert will discuss this growing sector, fees, issues, suppliers, pitfalls and approaches to take so that you are able to determine if they will work for your hotel. Understanding how to manage these suppliers, and ensure you get the right service from any selected provider is critical and making the wrong move at the outset can cost you a lot of money. Whether you are starting to consider the consortium option, have had an approach from an agency, or are already contracted, this treatment will help you to mange the supply relationship better and get more out of your agreements. YOUR HCC EXPERT Quentin Neville has over 30 years of Hospitality Procurement experience and has managed purchasing departments for some of the largest UK hotel groups. He uniquely understands this space, having also been a Director for a hospitality purchasing agency and managed the creation of several consortium initiatives and schemes. His knowledge will provide an unbiased opinion and provide you with the best possible approach to take when considering this category.
