Rethinking Traditional Three-bid and Lump Sum Practices

As a purchasing director or procurement manager, you are focused on securing high quality solutions and partners for your organization. We recognize that it’s important to consider all purchasing strategies before jumping into an employee relocation agreement.

As experts in corporate moving, we’ve done extensive research on the relocation process from coverage to logistics, moving, storage and project management. We’ve found that establishing sustainable practices and reliable relationships that can be used for future relocations is a fundamental necessity for the continued success of an employee relocation program.

In our own research, we found that 61 percent of participants said cost management was their biggest mobility challenge, while 46 percent said process efficiency was their biggest mobility challenge, and 33 percent said speed to deploy was their biggest challenge. Streamlining all processes under one partner reduces these top three mobility challenges by helping manage costs and increase process efficiency and speed to deploy.
