Our flexible, experienced team can step in and support wherever your resource gaps exist. Whether your in house procurement team is stretched, or you require a particular specialism, we have the skills you need. Equally if you don’t have procurement capability and expertise at all, we can manage that for you.
Engage
An extra pair of hands
What: Let Aster join your team and share the load. Whether you have in house capability that is already at capacity, or no resource at all but need some procurement support, we can step up and pitch in.
How: We’ll get up to speed, swiftly assess your needs, then roll up our sleeves and get on with it! Effective and flexible resource, there whenever you need it.
Deliverables: Highly capable, flexible and professional procurement capability at your disposal but at a fraction of the cost of an FTE.
Develop
Program support
What: Sometimes programs need dedicated procurement support that isn’t distracted by BAU, or a particular category specialism to add tangible value. We provide resource to deliver your programs.
How: We will slot in quickly and easily, engage the wider team and support your program with efficiency, expertise and professionalism.
Deliverables: A fully supported program, with the procurement workstream owned and delivered by our resource.
Extend
Leadership
What: More often than not complex programs benefit from having breadth of ownership, visibility and input, rather than working in siloed functions or workstreams. This is where we can help.
How: Full program leadership, business case development, delivery planning, exec comms, finance liaison, legal coordination – the list goes on.
Deliverables: A robustly led program, with governance, control, comms and delivery all expertly owned by our professionals.
