Procurement

The right goods and services, at the right time, at the lowest cost. That sums up GPS's approach to procurement, and we have the experience, the tools, and the know-how to make it work. By providing integrated, reliable, and cost-efficient supply chain management services, we help ensure the success of projects large and small.

Our global capabilities include:

• A resource pool of mobile professionals—experts in their fields—located in major economic and industrial centers of the world.
• Knowledge of local laws, markets, customs, and procurement practices that makes it easier to source from local suppliers.
• Long-term, senior-level relationships with key manufacturing and contractor organizations
• State-of-the-art tools such as a Web-based supplier portal for identifying low-cost, competent suppliers, and the ability to cut costs by purchasing in large volumes.
• Use of online auctions to obtain goods and services at the lowest possible cost. In one instance, we realized savings of close to 50 percent on equipment for a major international project.
