Pure Purchasing Consultants have a range of services and products that deliver practical solutions to help manage and control costs. We understand that even though in-house staff may know exactly what needs to be done, it can be difficult to find the time or resources to keep control or move projects forward easily and efficiently.

If your procurement strategies have evolved organically, we can provide transparent impartial advice and expertise, from getting a handle on your current contracts and suppliers, to executing infrastructure projects. 

All you need to do is get in touch to arrange a meeting, either by phone or at your venue to discuss your current situation, at every meeting we have never yet not saved any client money in our three-stage process, discuss and audit, implement and negotiate, review and maintain.

A Case Study: Cromlix

The Cromlix Hotel nestled in the scenic Scottish countryside just three miles from Dunblane, Cromlix is a romantic Victorian country estate encompassing a 15-bedroom hotel with 34 acres of woodland and landscaped garden grounds with its own chapel and lochan, the hotel has just benefitted from an extensive refurbishment.

The aim was to improve the profitability of the hotel by reviewing 7 nominated purchasing categories for the Hotel. This work was completed by working the senior team particularly Andy Oram, Cromlix Financial Controller and Barry Makin, Hotel General Manager.

Savings were delivered across electricity, LPG, waste, transaction handling, cleaning materials, crockery & glassware and beverage supplies. This was done in a three-stage process.

  1. Analyse the current purchasing costs by the supplier

  2. Set up purchasing calendar

  3. Show and implement savings.

The result for the Cromlix was to improve the profitability by over £37k in the first 12 months.

We engaged with Pure Purchasing Consultants to assist with generating savings on the inherited and complex purchasing arrangements at the Cromlix.

I would highly recommend any hospitality business to allow Pure to review your costs. The level of detail and knowledge delivered in the purchasing report was second to none, this made implementing the changes to deliver the savings easy and in a timely manner. We continue to use David and his team to help keep tight control on our costs.

David goes out of his way to help, provides a safe pair of hands, I would recommend David & Pure to assist with all things purchasing.
