1. Why is buyingTeam different?

buyingTeam is an independent Procurement Services Provider, delivering sustainable savings and benefits to clients.  It has no associates and does not belong to any other organisations.  Therefore, it provides unbiased advice to clients. 

In essence, buyingTeam provides expert resource to help procurement functions and is highly execution focussed.  buyingTeam only acts for its clients - it does not take agency / principal positions or revenue from suppliers under any circumstances in any part of the business, as we believe it constitutes a fundamental conflict of interest.
