APS offers its clients the full range of professional procurement services. In addition, the company’s expertise extends to the provision of services in connection with the disposal of surplus assets.
The emphasis is on customer satisfaction achieved by speed of reaction to customer requirements, successful and timely outcomes and strict adherence to budgets – all backed by the understanding that communication is the key.
Long or Short Term Procurement Contracts
APS has built its reputation on long term Procurement Contracts won through competitive tendering processes, and actively seeks to be added to Preferred Bidder lists, whether by pre-qualification for particular contracts or more generally.
APS well understands the needs and problems associated with the submission of tenders to tight deadlines, together with the provision of Tender Bonds and the subsequent Performance Bonds and detailed contract and Letter of Credit negotiations that are an inherent part of such tenders.
One-Off Procurement Services
Many clients will have individual requirements that do not involve the need for separate Procurement Contracts as envisaged above. APS welcomes the opportunity to quote for one-off services. Previous commissions have encompassed every type of supply from the sourcing of small, hard to find components, to the provision of high value, bespoke, capital assets such as specialist vehicles.
Asset Disposal Services
Complementary to the company’s procurement and associated services, APS also offers expertise in the disposal of surplus assets ranging from scrap to complete aero engines and from nuts and bolts to specialist vehicles. As part of this service APS can offer any necessary pre or post-sale storage facilities, with whatever level of security the client considers to be appropriate.
Outsourced Procurement and Supply Chain Management
Having recognised for itself the benefits of outsourcing, APS offers a wide ranging procurement service for clients whose business and expertise lie outside supply chain management.
Thus clients can take advantage of a tailor made service, designed to complement their expertise with a professional procurement and supply chain management facility. This ensures that the client’s own management and staff are able to concentrate on what they know best.
As well as the usual sourcing, buying and disposal activities this service can include any of the following;
Import and export services and facilities
Freight Forwarding (either as principal or agent)
Letters of Credit
Export Guarantees
Marine Insurance
Contract Pre-qualification
Export Licensing
Warehousing
Logistics
