Improve EBITDA.
Without cost.
Stonebridge partners with corporations to develop strong and effective sourcing solutions that reduce the Total Cost of indirect spend — with no savings realized, no fee charged.
Stonebridge Sourcing Solutions was formed in 2005 to serve mid-market corporations throughout North America, developing sourcing strategies that reduce expense across a broad range of expenditure categories.
Many corporations are realizing that the power of a dollar saved impacts EBITDA more than a dollar generated through sales. A company with a 5% profit margin must generate $2 million in revenue to earn $100,000 of profit — while $100,000 in expenditure reduction hits the bottom line directly.
"With less than 50% of purchases being closely managed, many companies are spending millions of dollars each year inefficiently as a result of poor sourcing decisions and category spend strategies."
