ADR International was one of the first specialist procurement consultancies when it was launched in the UK in 1986 by a team of highly experienced practitioners.
In 1992 our USA office opened to look after our expanding international client base, since then other offices have oopened in South Africa, Australia and London.
The company has evolved to remain at the forefront of purchasing and sourcing best practice and to offer a more comprehensive service to our clients.
From the beginning ADR International has led purchasing thinking. Many procurement practitioners and consultancies today use tools and techniques created by ADR including opportunity analysis, source planning, consensus sourcing, purchase price and cost analysis, cost improvement analysis and supplier relationship management.
We continue to seek new ways to promote best practice in purchasing and strategic sourcing to improve our client's capability and save them money. As a result, ADR continues to grow geographically and in our areas of expertise.
"During the early stages of development of a professional procurement function within the business, ADR consultants provided us with valuable insight into the tools and techniques utilised in other industry sectors and how they might be employed to similar effect within a house building company"
Managing Director, Alfred McAlpine, Homes Division.
