Achilles offers a suite of services designed to help companies streamline their supply chains by improved decision support, minimised sourcing costs, improving efficiencies, and maximising business results. These services create value by seamlessly combining procurement expertise with Internet enabled technologies and thorough sector experience.
Our services are available as Buyer Services and Supplier Services
Outlined below are the five main service areas:
Supplier Management
Effectively support supplier discovery, prequalification, capabilities appraisal and performance assessment for deeper, more sustainable spend reductions. Businesses can access global supplier communities, achieve full process integration quickly and efficiently and establish enhanced supplier relationship management. Suppliers can prequalify and market their capabilities to global buying communities through a single gateway.
Corporate Responsibility
Our systems support the growing importance of corporate responsibility standards and performance within the supply chain. In addition to the health, safety and environmental performance criteria already covered in most of our schemes, they enable information on compliance with labour and other ethical standards to be gathered efficiently to support risk assessment, performance monitoring and reporting. Industry-wide initiative - as supported by Achilles - has emerged as the best approach to raising labour standards.
Tender Management
Streamline and optimise the handling of all tender activity from official notice (OJEU) to reverse auction, negotiation and contract renewal. Improve compliance levels and promote efficiency throughout the contract process with real-time collaboration between buyer and supplier community.
Information Services
Providing sourcing intelligence that enables companies to analyse product category spending, spot important pricing trends, access supplier market reports by industry sector, to improve operational efficiency, and measure organisational effectiveness.
Professional Services
Our procurement consultancy network has extensive knowledge and experience in strategic sourcing and the deployment of the tools that support them via the Internet.
