9/1/16: Trelleborg Finds an Easy Way to Retain More Earnings

 

Trelleborg continues to lead the way in innovations and is now retaining more earnings in less time and with less effort through Sorcity.com Spend Reduction. Sorcity comes at no fee to a buying organization yet guarantees more savings.

Sorcity took a different approach to helping organizations reduce the prices they pay in order to save more money by providing a service that offloads time-consuming work, instead of software that requires time, resources, and cost. Sorcity is on-tap and ready to reduce price on just about any large purchase that needs to get quoted.

"It is impressive how much more money Trelleborg saves with our Sorcity ebids. We spend less time preparing RFQ s yet reach more Suppliers and receive lower prices. This can be applied to almost every large purchase across our company." says Bob Stein, C.P.M, Group Purchasing Manager, Trelleborg AB. "We are also improving productivity, reducing workload, and enriching the work for our people."

As a Buyer, Sorcity not only helps by running the ebid for you, but can help with many bid preparation steps to ensure greater savings, such as preparing your RFQ, vetting more suppliers, administering the ebid process, and removing time you spend negotiating. This offers you more time to meet with suppliers, conduct your due diligence, and award to your supplier of choice.

"This Center of Excellence model was carefully thought out by a group of procurement leaders, consultants, and Ph.D.'s", said Wes Guillemaud, CEO of Sorcity, "Too many solutions place the burden on an organization, forcing an ROI over months or years. Sorcity is on tap, ready now without barriers, so it offloads work and saves more money immediately, often in the millions or tens of millions of dollars. You just do not see offerings like this, especially at no fee to the Buyer. You can't lose."

Trelleborg is a world leader in engineered polymer solutions with annual sales of about SEK 22 billion in over 40 countries. The Group comprises five business areas and has been listed on the Stock Exchange since 1964.

Sorcity is a global sourcing service since 1999 utilizing best practices and the reverse auction bid method to help organizations retain millions of dollars more. Every purchase has needed terms, quality and service-levels, but price matters too!
