Purchasing & suppliers

Training buyers, finding the best suppliers in France, Asia and worldwide, optimising purchasing costs: profitability is also won at the buying stage.

What we do

In a small industrial company, purchasing often represents more than half of turnover — and is rarely managed. Atare brings method to it: who buys what, from whom, at what price, and what it might cost elsewhere.

In detail

What the service includes

Reducing dependence on a single supplier without losing quality.

Proof

A specification reworked, a hydraulic motor supplier tested and replaced, margins going up: these are clients telling the story.

See our work

We had doubts about the quality of our hydraulic motors and about the specification supplied by our supplier. Renaud went back over our studies, identified the problem, then found and negotiated a new hydraulic motor supplier that fully satisfied us.

I manufacture agricultural equipment in Poland. I was looking for automation and weighing systems suited to our machines. Renaud studied our production, then put us in touch with an Italian supplier we have been working with for several years, at prices that give us good profitability.
