Total Cost Solutions (TCS) is a company committed to delivering guaranteed savings to small and mid-size businesses in the area of procurement of indirect goods and services. Indirect goods and services are any items not on your product Bill of Material. We provide these savings by attacking the three basic drivers of total cost:
- Spend control – our unique software offering will assure all users remain within pre-established purchase limits for both dollars spent and types of items to be purchased at the transaction level. In addition, we will track your company’s expenditures against budgets and send you an alert message when spend rates are in danger of exceeding budget for the accounting period. You will be assured of control at the transaction and budget levels, by just opening your messages!
- Transaction efficiency – we will replace the traditional six step ordering process (1. Requisition, 2. One over one approval, 3. Finance validation of accounting data, 4. Purchase order, 5. Receiving, 6. Invoice matching and payment), with a single step process that can be completed from a PC, notebook or smart phone. Any place you can access the internet, you can order goods and services. The cycle is reduced from hours to seconds. Summary costs will be aggregated by cost center and account and delivered to finance as a lump sum, ready for entry into the ledger. The transaction detail to support this data will be provided to your company for audit and to TCS for analysis. Better service, information and control without the administrative burden on your employees!
- Pricing – Volume and value analysis drive pricing in the area of indirect spend and TCS is committed to bringing pricing and value enjoyed by big companies to our clients. Some of this will come through aggregation of spend from many clients and some will come through spend analysis and some of this will come through solid supplier partnerships that deliver cost and value improvement in areas that are service focused. We cover the whole space from shop supplies to IT, hardware and network management, to telephone/VOIP to waste hauling and all points in between. We are confident enough to guarantee you savings.
