A mid-sized UK manufacturing firm with a £12m turnover was employing two full-time procurement clerks to manage 400+ suppliers. The 'admin debt' was so high they were missing early payment discounts and failing to re-tender expiring contracts. We moved them to a combination of Zip for intake and Sievo for spend visibility. They reduced their headcount to one part-time Procurement Lead. Total annual saving: £52,000 in salary costs, plus an estimated £18,000 recovered in previously missed early-payment discounts and consolidated shipping rates.
رأي Penny
Procurement is one of the few roles where AI's ability to process massive datasets actually makes it better than a human at the 'buying' part. A human can benchmark three suppliers; an AI tool like Arkestro or Sievo can benchmark 3,000 in seconds. For most SMEs, you don't need a full-time officer to push paper and chase invoices anymore. You need a robust software stack like Precoro or Zip to handle the workflow, and a fractional manager to step in only when it's time to sign a five-figure contract. What AI still can't do is look a supplier in the eye and know they're lying about their factory capacity. It also struggles with the 'soft' side of procurement—building a relationship that ensures your order gets prioritised when a global crisis hits. My advice? Automate the discovery and the data entry. Use the savings to hire a strategic consultant who only touches your top 5% of spend.
