Consolidate suppliers

Consolidate suppliers, down to the long tail.

Framework agreements cover your large suppliers. For all the others, you set Pedlar up once as a vendor, and every one-time purchase runs through Pedlar, whichever supplier it comes from.

01/ 05The problem

Consolidation stops at the long tail.

A framework agreement is not worth it for a spare part you need once. So you set up a new supplier, and the master keeps growing.

  • One supplier per one-time purchase

    Setup, checks and master data for a single order.

  • Bundling does not work

    Without repeat orders, there is no volume and no framework agreement.

  • The master grows back

    Whatever you clean up among the large suppliers comes back in the long tail.

  • over 600

FAQ

What is supplier consolidation?

A company deliberately cuts the number of its suppliers. It bundles its purchases with a few of them, usually through categories and framework agreements.

Where does supplier consolidation reach its limits?

With one-time purchases. Without a follow-up order, a framework agreement is not worth it, and each new purchase often brings a new supplier.

How does Pedlar help consolidate suppliers?

You set Pedlar up once as a vendor. After that, Pedlar orders every one-time purchase in its own name, and you no longer set up new suppliers.

Does our ordering process change?

No. Approval levels and budget limits stay as they are. The order just goes to Pedlar instead of a new supplier.

What does Pedlar cost?

There are no fixed costs and no minimum purchase. Each order carries a service fee that depends on order volume.
