Our Industries

Dominate the Middle East Through Procurement Cost Optimization

Rising Costs Affecting SME Profit Margins

SMEs in the Middle East report an average rise in procurement costs by 15%, which puts pressure on profit margins and influences their sustainability in competitive markets.
Addressing these rising costs by optimizing procurement processes could lead to enhanced pricing strategies, empowering SMEs to maintain competitive advantage.

Scarcity in Critical Supply Chain Components

Critical supply chain components, which make up 30% of Middle East imports, are significantly dwindling, risking operational disruptions for businesses reliant on foreign suppliers.
By proactively managing shortages, businesses can prioritize necessary components and explore robust strategies for supply chain diversification, ensuring sustainability.

Leveraging Digital Tools for Efficiency Gains

Around 35% of the Middle East businesses using digital procurement tools have reported up to a 25% increase in process efficiency and reduction in overhead costs.
Expansion of digital solutions in procurement management can further streamline operations, open new avenues for resource allocation, and improve inter-departmental fluidity.

Collaboration Opportunities Amidst Regional Cuts

With 40% of budget cuts across industries in the Middle East, collaborative procurement solutions are underutilized with potential savings boosting competitive leverage over rivals.
Engaging deeply in multi-industry collaborations can result in collective cost benefits and leverage shared logistics, offering newcomers favorable market engagements.
