Smarter business switching.

Of course you can!

Many UK businesses lack the in-house resources to efficiently procure the services they need. Without external expertise, many businesses end up paying way above the going rate without realising it.

Procure Smart will undertake a comprehensive audit of your business’ procurement needs and identify areas of your business where savings can easily be made.

Following the deregulation of the English water market in April 2017, businesses are now able to choose their supplier based on price and quality of service. Our procurement experts will work on your behalf to find the best supplier, with the most suitable deal, and manage the switching process for you.

Our service doesn’t end at switching your supplier, here at Procure Smart, we go the extra mile to ensure all of your business water needs are accounted for, including:

• Usage Analysis – Thorough analysis of your business’ current water usage, identifying whether you’re being billed for more water than required.
• Bill Analysis – Overcharging is common within the water sector due to unintentional billing errors. Our bill analysis assessment is the smart approach to controlling your expenditure.
• Surface Water & Highway Drainage – Not every business needs to be paying drainage charges. We’ll audit your premises to ensure you’re only paying what you need to be.
• Trade Effluent Negotiations – Are you sure you’re paying the correct trade effluent charge? With years of experience behind them, our team have a proven track record of ensuring our customers only pay the required fees.

Due to our relationships with some of the UK’s leading energy suppliers, we’re able to negotiate the exact contract required to fit your every business need.

• Fixed-rate contracts – Pre-agreed unit rate (measured in kWh) with your supplier for the duration of your contract. They are the most common business energy tariffs as they enable businesses to  maximise the accuracy of their long-term financial forecasts.
  
  
• Variable contracts – The complete opposite to fixed-term deals. On a variable rate, your unit rate is determined by the current market rate. Whilst this could prove beneficial during short-term dips in pricing, businesses are also left vulnerable to spikes in wholesale prices.
  
  
• Green energy contracts – A form of contract where some or all of the energy you buy is ‘matched’ by purchases of renewable energy that your energy supplier makes on your company’s behalf.
  
  
• Pass through contracts – You agree to some, but not all charges upfront with your supplier, with the remainder being ‘passed through’ to you at an additional cost, depending on factors such as your time of usage. These contracts are favoured by many businesses who operate outside of normal operating hours when energy charges are typically lower. However, be warned, whilst savings can be made, pass through contracts make businesses significantly more vulnerable to variable charges.
