TYPICAL SUPPLY CHAIN

The 'Managing Agent' (Master Vendor) principle seeks to control the flow of operational recruitment processes through a single channel, removing inefficiencies and duplication.

Managing the supply chain provides operational cost efficiencies for organisations that seek internal change through supplier rationalisation, providing clear lines of communication.

Many companies are now in an era of significant restructuring and repositioning in which the fundamental nature of how and where they do business is being altered permanently. Supply chains are becoming rationalised through lean enterprise initiatives changing the nature of competitive practice. As organisations move from one mission critical issue to the next, technology-enabled advancements in Supply Chain Management and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) have allowed companies to further optimise their service levels, global competitiveness and return on capital. Morson's Managing Agent service assists clients throughout each streamlining phase, improving cost efficiency and productivity. Whatever the specific organisational or cultural issues, Morson deliver robust, flexible and innovative business solutions.

Case Studies

When a major international energy company embarked on an ambitious programme of cost reduction initiatives, they chose Morson International as their sole supplier. Immediate benefits were delivered when over 300 staff were transferred resulting in savings of over £1 million from reduced direct labour and process transition costs. As the partnership has developed, further savings have been realised year on year.

The UK arm of one of the world's leading agrochemical businesses traditionally operated an in-house design facility, enduring all the resultant inefficiencies and costs. They chose to rationalise their site design function, the Morson Group provided a 'Managing Agent' framework carrying out risk / pay matrix assessments and staff re-distribution. In addition, a complete design out-sourcing capability was provided. As a result, the client now enjoys a fully flexible design service that delivers optimum process costs within an Efficient Design Organisation (EDO).

When a global systems, defence and aerospace company wanted to develop long term strategic partnering agreements with a limited number of its suppliers, Morson International and Morson Projects were selected as 'Best in Class' partners. This relationship delivers excellent Human Capital Management and Multi-Disciplined Engineering Consultancy services within a Prime Vendor environment. Morson manage a second tier supply chain as part of this process.

"As a result of its plans and professional presentation, Morson International was chosen to support us in reducing the number of agencies from 34 to 5 and meeting our requirements for the recruitment and selection of staff. Our decision has been proven to be well founded as Morson International currently supplies staff with a turnover of £5 million per annum and additionally continues to meet our requirements for both temporary and permanent staff.

Overall, Morson International provides an extremely well organised, responsive and professional service from both its Manchester base and locally from its dedicated Account Manager."

"Morson are employed as Managing Agent - Master Vendor for the provision of Technical / Engineering and IT personnel to ourselves. This work has annual turnover of circa £8m.

Through working together as a partnership we have succeeded in reducing costs at our 2 administrative offices and 8 power stations. This has been achieved by Morson managing the complete supply chain and working in a highly proactive manner to reduce the total acquisition cost to British Energy.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Morson International to another organisation that wishes to achieve similar objectives within their own business."
