"When we hired Connell, we had no centralized system to capture data related to the dollars we were spending. They provided us with the service and expertise to pull that information together and begin to consolidate and take advantage of our leveraging ability. Their level of professionalism and expertise they brought to the table was exactly what we needed to accomplish our goals. I would highly recommend their services and professionalism."

“We needed to consolidate purchasing among our six plants nationwide, but had neither the time nor the expertise to do it on our own. We turned to Connell and got excellent results. They worked with us to make sure that quality and service were key parts of the decision making. By agreeing to a cost savings sharing plan up front, our only “cost” was a share of the savings that we got. It ended up a win-win all the way around. I can heartily endorse them as a partner for sourcing initiatives.”
