  15. Time CBS Central Office spends time on each deal which would be totally uneconomic for individual companies. Time to investigate market and evaluate deals

  16. Combined buying leverage of 1000+ members guarantees strong negotiating position. Large, varied volume allows multiple supplier options.

  17. Members direct suppliers towards the Centre. Feedback from members gives a better, current view of markets. Size gives other advantages such as Corporate account management.

  18. New opportunities • Field Force Automation The capture of field sales or service information in real time • Hosted Voice – “virtual” switchboard

  19. Resource Most of CBS deals are in areas of indirect spend, where few companies can afford to invest enough to achieve substantial cost savings. By using CBS services, your purchasing resource is free to concentrate on improving strategic areas of direct spend.
