ReZolve Solutions

Cost Reduction Services:

ReZolve Solutions are experts in cost-containment consultancy, noted not only for our value for money service but also for the close collaboration we develop with clients. We have worked with a diversity of client organisations and organisations of all types and sizes, helping them to achieve savings that range from a few hundred euros to savings amounting to hundreds of thousands of euros.
We specialise in overhead cost reduction. Targeting the areas of routine business expenditure, we form partnerships with clients to find savings in areas where most organisations rarely look and where, as a consequence, overcharging and excess costs can occur unnoticed. These are precisely the areas where often significant savings are to be made
Cutting costs is the simplest way to improve your bottom line.

What Sort of Costs? What Sort of Reductions?

The concept that ReZolve applies is a simple one: one of the easiest ways to generate greater profits is to identify and rectify wastage of resources. That is what ReZolve do: systematically, thoroughly and professionally but with knowledge of the world of supplies, prices and suppliers to which few have access.
The extent of wastage and therefore the scale of potential savings cannot be overstated. In many organisations, up to 20% of their profits will be spent on excessive supplier charges. Often this situation is due to the fact that managers are focused on the development of their own businesses and have not the time or opportunity to deal with the Cost Reduction of overheads, supplies and comsumables.

"Time is money"

The scope for increased profit through ReZolve's savings recommendations is correspondingly large, with savings of up to 45% in some areas of expenditure. These cost reductions are not only substantial and easily generated, they are also the most immediate in effect, going straight to the bottom line.

A No-Risk, Result Only Service

Savings are achieved at no additional cost to the client´s company. No fees are paid up-front. There are no hefty hourly consultancy rates. Clients are charged on a results-only, contingency basis: if no savings are identified, no fees are payable. While the savings identified will continue to accrue to your bottom line profit for at least 5 years, as its reward, ReZolve charges 50% of the savings achieved - but only for the first year even though the savings typically last for 5 years.
From the client's point of view, it is a totally no-risk situation: there is everything to gain and nothing to lose.

Quality, Service and Value for Money

When ReZolve's analysts team up with a client on a cost-reduction project, the principal aim and focus of their work is to ensure value for money (VFM) for clients.

"Value For Money" in this context comprises two aspects:

• The elimination of overcharging and excess costs and ensuring that prices being paid are the most competitive possible.
• The guarantee that quality and service are of an equally high standard and, where possible, improved.

Savings achieved are never at the expense of quality or service

Moreover, ReZolve's work is carried out with minimal interruption to the client organisation. Though we work together with client company staff for the duration of the project, our analysts conduct their analysis quickly, efficiently and with minimum interference in the client's day-to-day routine.

What if you find no possible savings at all?

If we are unable to find any possible savings, then of course there would be no charge for the service.
No savings....No fee - that is our promise.
An entirely no-risk opportunity for the client.

Profit Impact

Reduction of excess expenditures in overheads, supplies and consumables has a significant bottom line impact.

• Example # 1 - A business enjoying a 8% net profit margin would need to increase sales by almost £2m to impact the bottom line in the same way as £150k savings identification would.
• Example # 2 - A business enjoying a 4% net profit margin would need to increase sales by almost £4.5m to impact the bottom line in the same way as £175k in savings identification would.
