Devonport Management Ltd

Establishing a commercial procurement organisation to optimise the supply chain and reduce costs

Devonport Management Ltd (DML) recognised that a major step change in procurement practice was required in order to maintain its customer commitment to reduce the cost and timescale of maintenance and refit activity, and so avoid contractual penalties.

Over five years, DML has established a commercial procurement function with senior professional leadership. PA has supported this process through a number of discrete consultancy engagements, including procurement strategy, organisational change and supplier development.
