"While working as a Management Analyst at Company ABC, I suggested overhauling our purchasing process, which required a new system and the relocation of some of our existing purchasing team to our site offices. This system cut the head office sourcing time in half, shortening our procurement process by three days. Instead of hiring three people to do the sourcing on-site, we relocated our head office sourcing team to the site offices. Upfront, we saved around 180,000, which would have been the salary of the three additional personnel. We also saved an additional 200-250k within the first 12 months due to process efficiencies."
