Can you afford the time?

Or could you spend it more wisely?

You’ve got the best deals on materials.  You know this, because you spent time on it.

It’s convenient.  You can call in to your local branch and order it.  When it’s in stock, you can collect it.

And the invoice?  It may sometimes be wrong but you check them all anyway and that makes sure you are paying price from the brokered deal.

Paul Taylor from VINCI Facilities sums it up.  “Time is the biggest potential area of waste”.  He suggests 80% of waste on a contract is inefficient use of time.*

It confirms what we have seen for over a decade.  The cost of labour is a considerable element within the FM industry and by reducing this area of waste, the savings can be impressive.

Reduce wasted time and increase the bottom line.

With the simplyonsite system geared around streamlining procurement, the time savings that can be achieved are astounding.
