Third Party Cost Optimization
A leading Swiss medical and healthcare services provider with over 1,500 employees set out to gain transparency into its third-party cost base to identify savings opportunities and strengthen its position in upcoming supplier negotiations. MMG was brought in to conduct a strategic cost analysis using its Spend Cube methodology. The assessment covered over CHF 40 million in third-party spend and identified CHF 4 million in addressable costs across key categories including nutrition, telecommunications, housekeeping, printing, and cleaning. Through a structured RFP process and targeted contract negotiations, MMG achieved measurable results:
Impacts
Data-driven supplier consolidation and cost transparency
12-month project timeline, from analysis to implementation
CHF 500,000 in recurring annual savings
