Welcome to Lumos Consulting...

We utilise a spectrum of methodologies, some developed by ourselves and others adopted from recognised industry sources. When appropriate, we apply these methodologies to engagements, planning and measuring results at each step.

 

There is a common approach to the experience of all Lumos colleagues: the identification, communication and optimisation of risk and return. This supports everything we do across all industry sectors, hence our ability to create and deliver business value.

Thank you for visiting Lumos Consulting. Please feel free to Contact Us at any time to find out about more of our services...

Technology Procurement PDF Print E-mail
Lumos has experience on both sides of the table when it comes to technology procurement.  This is a valuable extension to in-house procurement teams, as it brings insight into vendors’ mindsets and motivations.  In turn, the appreciation of supply-side dynamics can inform and enhance every key element of the procurement process.
Having a ‘poacher turned gamekeeper’ from Lumos onside sheds new light and adds particular value to the following elements of the procurement lifecycle:
* Vendor assessment and selection
* Setting realistic procurement objectives
* Events within the tender process such as short-listing and beauty parades
* Tender process rules of engagement
* Contract negotiations
Lumos people have managed or participated in hundreds of procurements and contracts, and are sufficiently independent to work effectively without extensive supervision towards the client’s goals.
Using Lumos to support procurement can yield large returns, as we help to avoid the pitfalls and bear traps set by vendors and to maximise the financial benefits from a negotiation.
