We are IT Sourcing Experts who work with private and public sector global clients

As of 2018, we have become the global industry leader in Salesforce contract negotiation advisory services. 

Our IT Sourcing Negotiation Process

Our step-by-step process for negotiating IT software deals like Microsoft, Salesforce, etc.

1) Discovery
You meet with our team to identify your current state and unique forward looking business requirements. 

2) Strategy
Reducing your expenses is not all about negotiation. We first must get alignment on what you need and what you don’t. We help facilitate that conversation and develop a 3-5 year roadmap.

3) Negotiate
Depending on client preference, we can either negotiate on your behalf or be your silent adviser. We utilize our knowledge of industry benchmarks and supplier interests to extract the most value from your external relationships. 

4) Contract Execution / Savings Calculation
Sit back and relax while we handle the contract execution and calculate cost savings/avoidance on your behalf. ​

How we work
​

Our preferred model is to work on a pay-for-performance basis which aligns incentives between our companies and reduces your risk. We also offer flat project fees for companies who are not comfortable with a performance based approach.

Pay-for-Performance

We work on a performance basis. Our compensation is based on a percentage of the savings we bring your company. 

Advisory Services

We charge a project fee for advisory services to support you on a specific negotiation or sourcing initiative.
