01 / Services

Five ways to take cost
out of the chain.

01

Procurement Cost Reduction

A structured review of what you buy and what you pay for it. Savings are ranked by size, effort and risk, so you decide what is worth doing first.

02

Freight Tendering

Scoped tenders for ocean, road and air freight, run to a clear timetable with bids that are genuinely comparable line by line.

03

Supplier Negotiation

Preparation, benchmarks and negotiation support that improve terms while protecting the relationships you have built.

04

Strategic Sourcing

Category strategy, supplier selection and multi year agreements, so cost control holds after the project ends.

05

Supply Chain Advisory

Practical improvements to lead times, Incoterms, contract terms and service levels across international flows.

02 / How it works

Four steps.
No long reports.

01

Analyse

Spend data, contracts, freight invoices and lanes are mapped to see where the money actually goes.

02

Identify savings

Each opportunity is quantified and ranked, with the trade offs stated plainly rather than buried.

03

Tender and negotiate

Tenders are run and negotiations prepared, with benchmarks behind every number on the table.

04

Implement

Agreed rates are put into operation and tracked, so the saving shows up in the accounts and stays there.

Dimi Voltezos

Dimi Voltezos

Supply chain and procurement professional with experience across strategic sourcing, transport procurement, ocean freight and international supply chain management.

The work is deliberately hands on. You deal with the person doing the analysis and sitting in the negotiation, not with a team of juniors behind a brand. Engagements are sized to what an SME can absorb, and the aim is always a saving that survives the year after it was signed.

Independent by design. No carrier, forwarder or supplier pays a commission here, so the recommendation is only ever the one that serves your cost base.

04 / Questions

Asked before
the first meeting.

What does a cost review actually involve?

Spend data, contracts, freight invoices and lanes are mapped to see where the money goes. Each opportunity is then quantified and ranked by size, effort and risk, so you can decide what is worth doing rather than read a list of theory.

Do you work with SMEs or only large companies?

SMEs. Engagements are sized to what a smaller company can absorb, and you deal directly with the person doing the analysis and sitting in the negotiation.

Which freight modes are covered?

Ocean, road and air. Tenders are run to a clear timetable, with bids structured so they are comparable line by line rather than on headline rate alone.

Will I have to replace my suppliers?

Not as a starting point. The aim is better terms from the relationships you have already built. Where a change of supplier or carrier is genuinely the cheaper answer, it is put to you with the trade offs stated plainly.

What happens after the savings are agreed?

Agreed rates are put into operation and tracked, so the saving shows up in the accounts and is still there the year after it was signed.
