Optimise Your Flows, Your Costs, and Secure Your Entire Value Chain.

Why Operational Performance Has Become a Strategic Imperative

 

Procurement and operations sit at the intersection of cost, risk, sustainability and resilience. Companies that treat them as strategic functions consistently outperform their peers on margins, agility and stakeholder trust.

At ABGi, we support procurement, finance and operations leaders in transforming their purchasing processes and operational models: from strategy through to execution. Our approach is structured around a single conviction: every euro, every flow, and every supplier relationship is an opportunity for value creation, risk reduction or sustainable impact.

With expertise spanning more than 50 direct and indirect procurement categories, and a multi-country presence, we combine deep supplier market knowledge with flexible delivery models adapted to each client’s size, sector and maturity.

A Full-Spectrum Offer Across Your Entire Value Chain

Procurement policy & strategy

Definition and deployment of a high-performance procurement strategy, by category, by geography, by maturity level. We map your spend, identify your performance levers, and build action plans that align procurement with your organisation’s broader strategic objectives.

Operational procurement advisory

From market benchmarking and tender management to contract negotiation and supplier audits, our experts operate at the heart of your procurement process, delivering measurable savings and reducing supply risk across all categories, direct and indirect.

Procurement digitalisation

We support the digital transformation of procurement functions, reducing administrative burden, consolidating volumes and providing real-time visibility over spend and supplier performance.

Resource recruitment

Procurement functions face fluctuating and specialised resource needs. We provide embedded buyers and supply chain specialists, deployed on short or long-term missions, in continuous or shared models, covering all strategic procurement categories internationally.

Responsible procurement

Integrating environmental, social and economic criteria into procurement decisions is no longer optional. We help organisations define and deploy a Responsible Procurement policy aligned with their CSR objectives : assessing supplier panel ESG maturity, identifying risks, and structuring a roadmap with measurable targets.

 

Supply chain optimisation

We help organisations design more resilient, efficient and sustainable supply chains, from supplier mapping and risk assessment to logistics optimisation, inventory management and multi-source strategies. Protecting your supply is as important as reducing its cost.

Energy procurement

Energy is one of the most volatile and complex cost categories for industrial and service organisations. We optimise your energy procurement strategy (electricity, gas, renewables) negotiating contracts, managing market risk and identifying consumption reduction levers aligned with your decarbonisation objectives.

Local business taxation

Local business taxes (property taxes, territorial economic contribution, office levies) are frequently over-assessed or miscalculated. Our experts review your tax base, identify overpayments, and file the necessary corrections to recover amounts due, with no upfront cost commitment.

Energy taxation

Energy taxes (TICPE, TIRUERT, customs duties, contribution to the energy transition) are subject to complex exemption and rebate mechanisms that many organisations fail to fully exploit. We audit your energy tax position and recover entitlements, often delivering significant one-time cash recovery.

From Diagnostic to Measurable Results

 

ABGI’s approach is resolutely action-oriented. We do not stop at diagnostics or recommendations: we engage in execution alongside your teams, with a commitment to measurable results.
