Overhead Categories
The principles of Cost Reduction apply equally to almost every category of overhead. Cost Centre Service’s expertise has been gained in energy supplies, simply because billing accuracy is so poor and substantial refunds can be available. However, other overhead categories offer substantial savings as a result of
costs analysis.
Communications are a case in point: both landlines and mobiles can offer excellent prospects for savings, although refunds are not so easily accomplished. These categories demand full analysis to verify the task and seek a matching tariff.
Vehicle fleets are another area where proper research followed by a Tender can yield good savings. Even businesses with just four or five vehicles can benefit
from alternative suppliers or just a fresh look at requirements.
Energy and water conservation is another area where advice or proven resources are available, and where Cost Centre Services is able to introduce businesses to initiatives or suppliers who specialise in reducing resource consumption.
Water procurement, cost saving and management is becoming a major issue for many businesses. Cost Centre Services is developing water audit services along the same lines as those provided for energy.
In all of these activities, savings initiated by Cost Centre Services go straight
to your bottom line. There are usually no costs, and our audit work continues
in the background, without interfering with your day-to-day business operations.
