Legal strategy for bundling on purchase

You want to improve your purchasing conditions.

This is normal, it determines your trade margin.

The improvement of these conditions is made possible by a massification of purchases.

This massification is organized by grouping buyers.

This grouping implies making the choice of purchase or referencing, and in the case of referencing, choosing the legal qualification of the plant (which determines its financing, its responsibility, and therefore its risks, but also its economic model): purchasing agent, purchasing commission agent, broker.

This consolidation may have an impact on competition and may require notification to the Competition Authority. It must be determined at the stage of the definition of the grouping strategy.

Our methodology to define your strategy: central purchasing or referencing?

We define with you in detail in the meeting the possible modalities of grouping at the time of purchase, according to your objectives.

We draw up an explanatory note of these modalities that we compare. We make a recommendation based on your goals.

This phase may include, at your request, a revenue modelling component and a forecast operating account established by one of our accountant partners or strategy consulting firm.

Based on this note, we debrief with you our analysis and recommendations. Once your choice has been made, we draft your contracts with the members of your plant and your supplier referencing contracts.
