Strategic Partnerships

A collaborative approach to procurement.

Our strategic partnerships are mutually beneficial agreements between like-minded organisations who are eager to push procurement to the forefront and deliver great service.

Who are our Strategic Partners?

Over the years, we have forged strategic partnerships with numerous like-minded businesses, resulting in remarkable achievements. Here are a few examples:

Grasshopper Ant.

Meeting the demands of the volatile market, Grasshopper Ant is a procurement consultancy established in 2019, with a unique offering that simplifies traditional procurement methods.

Blending seasoned procurement and supply chain experience, proprietary technology and data expertise – they take a individualist approach to procurement which accelerates the process of value realisation with a methodology that is quick and simple to deploy.

Our strategic partnership commenced in 2021.

Grasshopper Ant’s offering is attracting a strong portfolio of client names and projects that explore and push procurement skills into new territories. 

Grasshopper Ant’s partnership with Procurement Heads draws on years of people experience to ensure we create leading-edge teams to deliver and work with our clients.   

Grasshopper Ant, Procurement Heads and The Hackett Group have developed indirect, direct and commodity ‘virtual benches’ to allow clients to purchase highly experienced advisory by the hour, day, week or retained.

Our teams train, coach, guide and show client teams how to baseline and develop category strategies as part of our advisory offering.
