Corporate Procurement
Across many entities, public, corporate, non-profits etc. the procurement function is treated more a sub-division of other sections or departments, such as finance, stores or administration. While there is close relationship between these and procurement, de-emphasising procurement continues to lead many entities to unaccounted for expenditure, disappearance of some inventory in stores, escalating costs, and to a great extend cronyism in the conduct of business. This is problematic!
Avalanche Solutions is at the forefront of providing solutions for such clients, not only through procuring products on these clients’ behalf, but also providing procurement and fiscal agent services. Here Avalanche Solutions deploys its team with the client to conduct spend analysis and identify tents and pattern of expenditure and provides advice to that the client can make improve decisions. This process enables the client to save enormously and divert its resources to other key strategic areas of its business.

These activities are conducted with full compliance with key principles of procurement in mind namely integrity (of the process and our personnel), economy, transparency, accountability,
