Strategic Sourcing Services That Deliver Results

Stained Glass High-rise Building

Sourcing Strategy Design

We build scalable sourcing strategies aligned with your business goals, whether you’re consolidating SKUs, diversifying supplier bases, or expanding into new geographies. Our approach balances cost, risk, ESG compliance, and operational feasibility.

Supplier Portfolio Optimization

We audit your current supplier base and segment by spend, risk, and performance. From rationalization to dual sourcing, we help reduce over-dependence, simplify procurement, and unlock better pricing leverage.

Global Market Benchmarking

We run cost and capability comparisons across regions including freight, labor, raw materials, and MOQs. This gives you transparency across global sourcing options and informs smarter location decisions.

Long-Term RFQ Programs

We design multi-year RFQ strategies for key categories. This includes timeline planning, contract structuring, and supplier scoring frameworks that make recurring negotiations faster, clearer, and more aligned to strategic KPIs.

Sourcing Governance & Playbooks

We codify your sourcing policies into operational playbooks that define roles, approval flows, supplier selection criteria, and decision rights, helping your team execute consistently and at scale.

How We Help

Torg’s strategic sourcing consultants embed with your category, procurement, and leadership teams to deliver sourcing strategies that are actionable, cross-functional, and measurable.

Spend & Supply Base Analysis

We dissect your spend data by category, region, and supplier type—mapping dependencies, volume splits, and unit economics. Our consultants assess supply chain health using dashboards that highlight underperforming vendors, duplicated categories, and pricing gaps, giving you a data-backed foundation to set smarter, more focused sourcing strategies.

Strategic Sourcing Frameworks

We build sourcing playbooks tailored to your category needs, incorporating supplier tiering, decision trees, cost structures, and risk thresholds. This standardized framework helps your team scale sourcing faster, select the right suppliers for different scenarios, and apply consistent logic across global and regional procurement efforts.

Future-State Design & Planning

We design future-state sourcing models aligned with your growth, cost, and resilience goals. Whether you’re pursuing reshoring, shifting to sustainable suppliers, or expanding SKUs, we run what-if simulations, map supply nodes, and define the infrastructure, lead times, and supplier shifts needed to execute long-term plans.

Sourcing Metrics & Review Cadence

We define a scorecard of KPIs like supplier concentration risk, total landed cost variance, on-time delivery, and compliance rates. We also help install a quarterly review rhythm across teams to keep sourcing decisions aligned with business goals and market shifts—closing the loop between strategy and execution.

Strategic Sourcing Consulting Process

1

Discovery & Scope Definition

We work with your team to clarify strategic goals (cost savings, risk diversification, geographic shifts, or ESG improvements) and define the product categories, timelines, and success metrics.

2

Spend Analysis & Supplier Mapping

We break down current spend by category, supplier, region, and volume. Our team visualizes your supplier footprint and identifies fragmentation, high-risk dependencies, and consolidation opportunities.

3

Scenario Planning & Strategy Design

We build alternative sourcing models tailored to your growth plan—evaluating trade-offs between cost, delivery time, capacity constraints, and ESG risk. Each option is backed by supplier data and market benchmarks.

4

Implementation Roadmap

We create clear plans for supplier transitions, contract rollouts, communication with operations, and go-live tracking. We also support RFQ launches and contract realignment where needed.

5

Performance Review & Governance Setup

We implement review templates, dashboards, and team workflows so your sourcing strategy is updated quarterly, not once a year. We define when to re-bid, renegotiate, or rebalance across your supplier network.
