Summary
Procurement Manager Jordy van den Berg wants to bring a culture change when it comes to cost savings. Contracts are still too often automatically extended without renegotiation. He also has no insight into discounts that Riwal branches worldwide have negotiated with suppliers. How can he help local branches manage their contracts and negotiate more competitive discounts with suppliers?
Challenge
With a cost awareness template and a software solution for Contract Management, RIWAL gets a grip on its contracts and realizes significant savings. This is already yielding substantial savings in the first few months for a minimal investment.

In addition to rental, sales and maintenance of aerial work platforms, telehandlers and forklifts, Riwal also sells first-class spare parts and training.

What is the Case Study about
Lost revenue due to automatic renewals
It proves difficult for the manager to keep track of all branches from the Netherlands. That is why he traveled: “I noticed that contracts did not get the attention they deserved. Several people signed them, sometimes even when they were not authorized to do so. And there were few countries where all contract information was stored in one central location.”
Riwal expects to save millions
The value of our supplier contracts is about 150 to 175 million euros. With Mochadocs and the Cost Awareness template, we want to save 1 to 2 million. Per country, we pay 60 euros per month for Mochadocs.
The return for RIWAL is clear.
