Procurement Services Firm Celebrates 25 Years of Delivering Bottom-Line

Value

Source One Management Services celebrates its 25th Anniversary in delivering Procurement
excellence.

Willow Grove, PA, July 11, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Expert procurement consulting firm, Source One
Management Services, celebrates its 25th year in business as a premier provider of strategic sourcing and
spend management services. Since its inception, the boutique consulting firm has focused exclusively on
Procurement and Strategic Sourcing - impacting how Procurement teams interact with suppliers and
elevating the Sourcing function's role within the enterprise. Throughout its long history as one of the
original procurement services firms, Source One has achieved significant success in not only directly
producing cost in countless spend categories but also as thought leaders, providing expert advice
changing the way organizations approach strategic sourcing and procurement.

Established in 1992 in the Philadelphia metropolitan area with a vision of enabling buying teams to
optimize their supplier relationships and purchasing practices through strategic sourcing, Source One
Management Services has quickly grown and continuously evolved to help companies address
ever-changing procurement challenges. Over the last decade, the firm has positioned itself as a
powerhouse of thought leadership, launching the blog site/Google News Source, Strategic Sourceror, to
provide procurement and strategic sourcing expertise, partnering with Wiley & Sons to publish Managing
Indirect Spend, the world's first ever book highlighting indirect spend strategic sourcing, speaking at
countless industry events, and producing a portfolio of whitepapers.

In 2015, Source One opened the doors to its Chicago office to accommodate business demands in the
Midwest, and partnered with the Institute for Supply Management to produce the executives-only ExecIn
Forum during the ISM Annual Conference. Most recently, Source One launched its web-based spend
analysis tool, Spend Consultant. The spend analysis as a service platform leverages the firm's decades of
procurement experience to deliver an actionable spend analysis along with category-specific strategies for
cost reduction success. The tool aims to solve a growing challenge for companies seeking a clear view of
their spend - without the burden of implementing and integrating a software platform.

Source One's unprecedented growth and evolution extends well beyond our spend management goals for
our clients. It is the result of our mission to shape the future of Procurement, shares CEO, Steven Belli.
To say we are proud of how far we have come is an understatement - it's an incredible time to be a part
of Source One as we reflect on our long history and leverage our experience to propel us into the next
phase on Procurement.

This year also marks the relaunch of the consultancy's eSourcing platform WhyAbe. WhyAbe's relaunch
continues Source One's investment into tools that are custom-made for procurement professionals, by
procurement professionals. The revamped eRFX tool will boast a new user experience and improved
capabilities for identifying and collaborating with suppliers and managing contracts. The new WhyAbe
will offer two subscription models: a free option for individual users, as well as a low-cost team option

half of 2017.
