About us
We are not a typical company offering cost reduction services.
J6 is one of the UK’s leading business consultancies specialising in procurement and supply chain cost-reduction and has over 30 years of global experience in manufacturing, retail and professional services.
Whilst we can produce savings on a great number of expense categories, we have yet to find a company that can match our results on office products (stationery), computer consumables, telecommunications, air travel, document management and storage, merchant card fees, utilities and others.
Savings of not less than 15% and up to 70% through the total supply chain can be achieved and in many cases, without changing your incumbent supplier.
Our team includes dedicated specialists on a number of expense categories, using their in-depth market knowledge and expertise of their own area to provide a detailed analysis and report, showing the potential annual savings that can be achieved.
What we ask prospective clients when we meet is to have an open mind and willingness to learn. Our aim is to augment the purchasing function by providing additional dedicated resources not influenced by day to day activities and sharing the immense market knowledge we possess with the client.
We use state of the art patented innovative technology in the solutions we provide our clients on telecoms and generic overhead items, giving continuous savings for the long term.
Due to the nature of our business, we are working with companies of various sizes and across industry sectors and whilst complying with the Data Protection Act we have access to their suppliers’ invoices and therefore their prices. This provides our clients with the knowledge benefit of knowing what is the best price possible for products and services purchased. Companies usually have no access to such information or would have great difficulty in obtaining it.
Very important factor is the real time (up to the day before) management information and bespoke many levels of exception reports we can provide. This information will enable you to better manage the business and continuously reduce cost.
In summary, we can provide our clients with the additional benefit of:
- Best practice and industry experience
- Up-to-date specialist knowledge, benchmark and market information for your industry, not easily available
- Independent view not influenced by internal politics, vested interest or historical preferences with your company
- Ability to achieve savings without necessarily changing the incumbent supplier/s
