Rugby Football Union joins software driven buying group
Rugby players
CBG professional buyers will work alongside the RFU's staff and management to help them achieve better prices across the board to help transform procurement at the RFU
The Rugby Football Union (RFU) has joined an online buying group and is using software to cut an estimated £300,000 of the procurement bill every year.
The RFU is the first member to join a buyers group from Compleat Software Limited, which was launched this year, and is using the company's Purchase to Pay software.
It uses the traditional advantage of group buying to get better prices and has P2P software to help ensure nominated suppliers, goods, services and prices are used every time at the RFU.
John Molson, Head of Finance at the Rugby Football Union comments, "Compleat Buyers Group will pay for itself through the savings made on stationery alone and anything else is a bonus."
