Agroecological transition – Challenges and prospects for agricultural machinery manufacturers, seed companies and agrochemicals firms
In a complex and inflationary economic environment, purchasing functions and operational processes are under growing pressure. ABGi acts as a strategic partner, combining proven methodologies with sector-specific expertise to turn cost centres into drivers of competitiveness and sustainable growth. Our interdisciplinary teams accompany clients from public institutions to global industrial groups, in France and internationally.
Expense Mapping
Getting a clear and exhaustive picture of your spending is the essential first step toward any meaningful performance improvement. ABGi analyses your entire cost base — direct, indirect and CAPEX — across all sites and business units, identifying hidden inefficiencies, duplications and untapped optimisation opportunities. The output is a structured, actionable spend map that serves as the foundation for every subsequent initiative.
Decarbonization Program
Reducing your carbon footprint is no longer just a regulatory obligation — it is a competitive differentiator. ABGi helps organisations embed sustainability into their procurement and operational practices: supplier carbon assessment, green energy purchasing strategy, ESG clauses in contracts, and roadmap definition toward measurable emissions reduction targets. We translate environmental commitments into concrete, trackable actions across your value chain.
Cost Reduction Plan, Productivity & Zero-Based Budget
Sustainable cost reduction goes beyond one-off negotiations. ABGi builds structured, multi-lever plans combining supplier rationalisation, process re-engineering, and a zero-based budgeting approach that challenges every line of expenditure from scratch. The result is a rigorous, prioritised action plan that delivers measurable savings while preserving — or improving — quality and service levels.
Cash Recovery
Improving cash position quickly is often a critical priority. ABGi identifies and recovers funds that are unnecessarily tied up or lost: overcharged taxes (local, energy), unreclaimed credits, billing errors, and over-contracted services. Our fiscal and procurement experts audit your bases, challenge assessments, and implement monitoring mechanisms to prevent future leakage — generating immediate and durable financial gains.
