Strategic Sourcing for Small Business Success

Outcome-based procurement services that deliver results, not risks

At SSG, we understand the challenges small businesses face in managing overhead costs.  With limited time, resources, and procurement expertise, many businesses miss valuable opportunities to reduce expenses and enhance operational efficiency.

We specialize in a wide array of procurement services for SMBs that lack dedicated teams or need additional expertise.

Our goal is to help businesses reduce indirect spend, optimize vendor agreements, and unlock savings-all through a risk-free, outcome-based fee structure.

Business Meeting

Our Process

A simple, results-driven approach to maximize your savings.

Free Consultation

  • A quick, no-obligation discussion to understand your business needs and current approach to procurement.

  • Overview of how our outcome-based model works--no upfront fees or long-term commitments.

  • If there's a fit, we move forward at no cost to you.

Data Collection

  • You provide the necessary data; vendor contracts, invoices, quotes, and spend reports--or we help gather them.

​​

  • ​We conduct a comprehensive review of your spend and benchmark against market pricing and industry best practices.

Project Mapping

  • Together, we prioritize high-impact cost-saving opportunities based on:

    • Financial impact (cost reduction potential)​

    • Operational needs (vendor relationships, critical services, etc.)

​​

  • We build a structured savings roadmap with a clear action plan.

Strategy Development

  • We tailor a sourcing and negotiation strategy based on how you want to engage vendors:

    • Fully Managed:  We handle vendor negotiations end-to-end.​

    • Collaborative:  We work alongside your team.

    • Advisory:  You lead the discussions, and we provide market insights.

  • ​You retain full control over vendor decisions--we execute based on your approval.

Sourcing Execution

  • We negotiate better pricing and terms with your current vendors or run RFPs for competitive options.

​​

  • Vendor negotiations are done strategically to align with your business priorities.

​​

  • We never force vendor changes--only optimize what makes sense for you.

Implementation & Savings Validation

  • Once new pricing or contract terms are agreed upon, we ensure a smooth implementation with vendors.

  • A Savings Implementation Report is provided, detailing:

    • Total cost savings achieved​

    • 12-month savings baseline (agreed upon before execution)

    • Implementation status and next steps

  • If savings aren't realized, you don't pay us--it's that simple.
