“We
have introduced e-auctions as part of a major project to
centralise and standardise sourcing within Nuffield
Hospitals. We have staged a considerable number of auctions
in various areas such as amenity paper, swabs, beds, power
tools, masks, and pumps. We have achieved substantial
savings, typically in excess of 20%.
Trade
Interchange spends time understanding our buyer's spend
areas, and helps identify contracts for auction. Their
people then work closely with the buyer to structure the
event correctly and to select the right auction features.
Trade Interchange also trains the suppliers in preparation
for auction, so there is almost no additional workload for
our buyers.
We have
been delighted with Trade Interchange’s software, service
and particularly the savings we have achieved through our
e-auctions.”

“Leisure Link have appointed Trade Interchange as their
preferred supplier for e-auctions following a very
successful e-auction where we saved around 30% on
stationery. The site is easy to use for both the customer
and the suppliers taking part in the tender. Trade
Interchange give clear instructions to suppliers before the
auction and also support the process throughout the auction.
The management information after the auction is also
extremely useful for analysis and reporting. I would
recommend Trade Interchange for any purchasing team looking
to run an e-auction.”
