Client type
Public Sector & Government-Backed Enterprises
Industrial procurement, cost, supplier and programme capability for public-sector undertakings, state-owned enterprises and government-backed industrial programmes, delivered within the rules that govern public money.
Where we help
Industrial depth for public programmes.
The same category and process specialists who serve manufacturers, applied to the cost, supply and industrialisation questions public enterprises face.
Cost estimates & rate reasonableness
Independent, bottom-up should-cost estimates to set tender estimates and to test whether quoted rates, including the lowest bid, are reasonable.
Vendor development & indigenisation
Domestic sources for imported and single-source items: capability mapping, supplier development and first-article readiness.
Supplier capability & capacity
Process-level assessment of whether a supplier can deliver the volume, quality and timing a programme depends on.
Specification & value review
Specifications that widen competition and remove cost nobody asked for, without lowering performance or standards.
Category strategy & aggregation
Category strategies, rate contracts and framework agreements that use the organisation’s scale.
Programme & industrialisation governance
Governance for complex industrial programmes, from supplier nomination and tooling to production readiness.
Probity
Within the rules, and seen to be.
Within your framework.
We work inside your procurement manual, delegation of powers and the public-procurement rules that apply, never around them.
Independent of bidders.
We do not act for a supplier in any procurement we are advising on, and we declare potential conflicts before an engagement starts.
Decisions stay with you.
We provide evidence, analysis and options. Award decisions remain with your competent authority.
Documented and auditable.
Estimates, assessments and recommendations are recorded so that they stand up to internal audit and external scrutiny.
The Indian context
Public industrial buying in India runs through GeM, the General Financial Rules, preference-to-Make-in-India orders and the indigenisation agendas of defence, railways and energy. Our work is designed to fit inside that framework: cost evidence that supports decisions, and local supply bases that can meet the standard.
Industries
Where public programmes meet our categories.
Ways to engage
