Lack of visibility or control of the amount being spent on services from third party suppliers. The large and ever-expanding breadth of Capita s services means that a proportion of the external expenditure on services can, in fact, be kept within the Group.

And with the ultimate aim of controlling all expenditure over 100K.

13 Testimonials - Suppliers "Over the past 12 months, there has been a clear and tangible change in the way in which the Capita Group Procurement team have worked with myself and my colleagues. Not only have the professionals and management within the Capita Procurement function taken a leadership role in all of the key business engagements with me and my extended team, but they have shown the highest level of integrity, professionalism and clarity in their dealings with us while maintaining complete ownership of the procurement process. Rob Sanderson, Client Executive IBM "Telefonica O2 has seen a significant change in the approach and influence of the Capita Procurement team over the past 12 months. Previously Capita maintained a silo approach across their business units resulting in numerous contracts in place for the same service with o2 and no central management. Since the implementation of the revised Procurement Structure we have managed to tie all separate contracts in to one, therefore allowing Capita to leverage all their spend and all business units to realise the benefits.
