Overview

A client hired UNI Cost Management to examine the overall costs for office supplies, overnight courier and document storage/destruction. UNI then analyzed all relevant contracts and invoices and found multiple opportunities to reduce unnecessary spending. UNI Cost Management understood the layered details of managing multiple contracts, for multiple services and how they can influence pricing and trigger overpayments. UNI studied the status of each department based on data collected in the invoices given by the client:

Office Supplies - The client utilized two vendors to provide their office products. The total spend for their central office was $15,000 annually. UNI noticed an opportunity to potentially save 20% on office supplies.

Couriers - The client used overnight couriers to ship important documents and a variety of items needed to be delivered in a short timeframe. The total spend for courier services was $6,000 annually. UNI noticed there was an opportunity to save 30% on couriers.

Document Storage and Destruction - The client used a single company for both their storage and shredding/destruction services. The total spend for their central office was approximately $6,200 annually. UNI noticed there was an opportunity to save 40% in storage and destruction costs.
