Conferences, Incentive Events and Meetings: Procurement Management and Support Services

Procurement Support Services

As the negotiation of meetings and events grows more complex and sophisticated, the sourcing and contracting of facilities and venues has been compressed into ever briefer lead times.  Many organizations are left at the mercy of Suppliers who have a substantial information advantage in the marketplace.

TheAustinGroup assists savvy Procurement Professionals and Meeting Planners with the creation of proven policies and best practices that work to maximize your organization’s purchasing power in the rapidly changing meetings and incentive marketplace. 

Effective Implementation

The firm’s experienced consultants have assisted numerous organizations with the implementation of Centralized purchasing strategies, Opt-In Voluntary procurement procedures, identification of savings opportunities, and Across-the-Enterprise training of meeting planners, from administrative assistants to veteran professional meeting planners.

Working with you, TheAustinGroup will identify strategies and procedures that will immediately gain traction within your organization and lead to savings of direct costs and indirect expenses.  TheAustinGroup will provide added values and negotiate enhanced services from your Key Suppliers, assist you with the development of coherent Risk Management and Legal policies, train or provide your people in the use of the industry’s most accurate Budgeting Tools, and even design and manage the RFP and Negotiation process for your.

Your Values

All services of TheAustinGroup are tailored to your company’s culture, goals, and values.  We are 100% compliant with Sarbanes-Oxley and have helped to implement successful transitions to more effective meetings procurement procedures at many companies.
