~$50,000/yr
Manufacturing · South Florida
One plant, five categories. Recurring savings on the first pass, with new savings still surfacing three years and one acquisition later.
01
The plant carried a full book of unaudited indirect spend: merchant processing, energy, freight, telecom, packaging, and copying, all on legacy vendor relationships that had never been benchmarked. Ownership and operations leadership stayed with the work through an acquisition mid-engagement. The review continued under the new corporate parent, with contracts re-audited as they came up for renewal.

04
Rebid the account and moved to a lower-cost carrier
Replaced the equipment lease and service agreement
Repriced to interchange-plus with a new processor
Added competing suppliers to a single-source program
Re-bid legacy lines after the ownership change
05
01
The audit did not stop at signing
New categories were audited and old ones re-audited as the business changed hands.
02
No operational disruption
Every switch was a vendor swap, not a process change. Same materials, same output, better pricing.
03
The risk-free structure survived new ownership
The corporate parent kept the relationship because there is no fee unless savings hit the invoice.

Owner as the contact, referred by the group's CPA. Recurring invoices had been quietly ratcheting. Payroll, merchant processing, and a one-time tax credit.
