Industries served

Procurement problems travel. The details don't.

The discipline of finding, executing and proving value applies everywhere. What decides a deal is specific to each industry: the categories, the contract structures, the data. We work from that detail.

Commercial Real Estate

Most portfolios buy the same building services dozens of different ways, with no common unit of cost to compare them. We give owners and managers a normalized view of what they pay and the leverage to act on it.

Construction

In construction, the job is bought one project at a time. The buying habits that follow rarely get examined across projects. We help contractors and developers bring discipline to subcontract, equipment, materials and site-services spend.

Facilities Management

Whether you manage buildings or deliver the services inside them, facilities spend is fragmented, labor-driven and priced differently at every site. We help property managers, portfolio managers and FM providers buy it better.

Financial Services

A cost base dominated by technology, data and services, bought under regulatory scrutiny of every critical third party. Procurement in financial services has to satisfy risk and compliance, not just price.

Healthcare

Purchased services, agency labor and the vendors behind the revenue cycle often get less scrutiny than clinical supplies. We focus on that non-clinical spend, where terms are complex and visibility is usually thin.

Higher Education

Decentralized buying, federally funded research, consortium contracts and a campus that runs like a small city. Higher education procurement has to earn influence it can't simply mandate.

Insurance

Much of an insurer's third-party spend never passes through procurement. It flows through claims as loss adjustment expense. We help carriers, brokers and TPAs manage both sides of the ledger.

Manufacturing

Manufacturers invest heavily in managing direct materials. The indirect spend that keeps plants running often gets far less attention, and that is where S2V focuses.

Private Equity

Private equity doesn't need more savings estimates. It needs procurement value that shows up in EBITDA on a compressed timeline and holds up in a buyer's diligence at exit.

Professional & Legal Services

Partner-led buying, client-billable costs and a supplier base built one relationship at a time. Procurement in partnership-model firms has to earn its authority.

Retail

The same service bought hundreds of times, store by store, at hundreds of different prices. Retail's goods-not-for-resale spend rewards anyone who can see it across the whole portfolio.

Technology

Cloud consumption that drives gross margin, SaaS bought on credit cards and renewals that arrive before anyone reads the notice clause. Technology companies scale faster than their buying discipline, and we help close that gap.

Utilities

A utility can only recover costs its regulators deem prudent. A documented, competitive sourcing process isn't just a savings exercise. It's the evidence file that protects cost recovery.

Venues, Sports & Entertainment

Event-driven demand, revenue-share concessions, sponsor-suppliers and turnaround deadlines that don't move. Procurement in venues breaks the rules that work everywhere else.
