Client References
Beeches Consulting's experience spans all industries and market sectors. We have selected some examples below that demonstrate this depth of experience. For other examples or a detailed Case Study, please contact us.
Contract Mediation & Dispute Management
Beeches Consulting was engaged to lead on the renegotiation of one of the largest outsourcing contracts in the world.
The contract, worth billions of pounds had fallen into difficulties and both the client and the service provider were unable to resolve their differences.
Beeches Consulting acted as lead mediator between both parties and successfully renegotiated substantial aspects of the contract such that it is now agreed and acceptable to both parties. Monthly performance reports are now also signed off by both parties which for the previous 2 years had never been done.
Interim Management
Beeches Consulting has worked with many companies that have either lost key personnel or do not have the skills in-house for a vital project. This is a very specialised area so if you would like to discuss your specific requirements with us, we will give you relevant examples of similar roles that we have provided for other clients.
Sourcing Management
Beeches Consulting has advised a number of clients with respect to ensuring that there is a clear sourcing strategy in place. For one organisation, this involved a ‘back to basics' review of where budgets were being spent and on what, looking to where a strategy for ‘services' or ‘commodity' based suppliers should be adopted and building the correct processes across the organisation to ensure that it was professionally implemented, adopted and maintained.
Outsourcing
Beeches Consulting has advised on many outsourcing projects for clients. An example of one client was the need to rapidly select an off-shore services provider to help rescue a problem in-house IT development project that needed rapid completion as well as cost reduction due to an overrun on project costs.
Beeches Consulting led the whole process, developed the RFP and managed the supplier selection process prior to providing over-sight on the implementation project which required the rapid deployment of large numbers of IT development and support staff.
Cost reduction
Our Consultants have been engaged by a number of organisations to identify and implement rapid cost reduction programmes.
An example includes:
a high street name in the financial services sector, where the achievement in just 4 months elapsed time was guaranteed reductions of £1.5m within the current financial year. This involved the rapid renegotiation of arrangements with existing suppliers and the whole project was completed smoothly and without any disruption to the client's ‘business as usual' activities.
Due Diligence
Our consultants have experience of carrying out Due Diligence on behalf of a number of varied organisations. A recent example includes the DD review for an acquisition of a European business. Beeches Consulting led on the Due Diligence of all technical IT aspects of the acquisition as well as the commercial aspects associated with this.
