Understanding the financial impact of outsourcing your non-strategic purchases is essential for making an informed decision. Chez BME, we are committed to making this process as transparent and easy as possible.
In this example, outsourcing your non-strategic purchases with Buy Made Easy could lead to total savings of almost €192,500.
Let's say your business spends $1,000,000 per year on non-strategic items. With our rate of 6.5%, our service would cost you €65,000 for the year.
When you take into account all these savings and deduct the BME commission (for example 6.5%, or €65,000), you get a savings of €127k, or 12.7%, and above all, peace of mind in managing your expenses!
Procurement outsourcing means that we buy and resell products or services on your behalf. This considerably reduces the number of your suppliers and contacts, guarantees the collection of invoices, eliminates the management of VAT and customs fees. By centralizing everything on a single supplier, you entrust the control of small suppliers to a trusted third party.
Outsourcing your purchases to BME and centralizing your expenses into a single invoice can transform your purchasing and accounting processes. Get in touch with us today to find out how we can help you simplify, clarify, and optimize your expense management.
Non-strategic purchases are all low-value and infrequent purchases that are more difficult to enter into traditional order processes. They can devote valuable time to your operational teams and to accounts payable because of the administrative management involved.
Outsourcing non-strategic purchases allows businesses to focus on their core activities and to save time and money by avoiding the complex and costly management of these purchases. It also makes it possible to optimize purchases through better price negotiation, a reduction in the number of suppliers, and better management of contracts and disputes.
Buy Made Easy optimizes your direct and indirect purchases through process automation. This includes centralizing your non-strategic purchases on a single solution, negotiating the best prices thanks to volumes, and the strict application of contracts negotiated with suppliers.
The potential savings vary depending on the size of your business and the volume of your non-strategic purchases. However, in general, businesses can expect a reduction in personnel costs related to managing expenses, a reduction in the number of suppliers, negotiation of better prices, and better budget management thanks to our online dashboard solution.
Timelines may vary depending on the size and complexity of your business, but in general, we can get our solution up and running in 1 to 3 weeks.

Imagine this: You are CFO at the Accor Group, an international company with medium-sized subsidiaries all over the world (Hotel, Restaurant, Seminar...). Spot (or class C) purchases, although of a relatively small amount, are numerous and diverse: from office supplies to specific room or kitchen layouts, including training courses or events. They are managed by several members of your team within the subsidiaries, each with their own purchasing process, which creates a significant administrative burden.
By working with BME, you centralize all of these purchases on a single platform - Sourcing Force. This reduces the number of suppliers to manage, eliminates unnecessary supplier accounts, and simplifies the order validation process.
The result: less paperwork and more time to focus on strategic tasks.
Buy Made Easy, as a purchasing agent, uses its bargaining power to get the best prices. Thanks to our pre-negotiated catalogs, we can often get better rates than you would have direct access to.
The result: we strictly apply your purchasing policies for these expenses, thus avoiding any non-compliant purchases.
With Sourcing Force, you have real-time access to detailed reports on your expenses. You know exactly how much you're spending, on what, and with which suppliers.
The result: This gives you total control over your spending and allows you to quickly identify opportunities for additional savings.
In terms of financial flows, BME works as an intermediary between you and your suppliers. You pay BME for all your spot purchases, and BME Pay the suppliers.
Result: This means that you have a single invoice to manage, simplifying your accounting process even further.
