Xoomworks Procurement, part of Accenture We then build on this solid foundation by focusing on the way people behave and interact with the mechanics.

Xoomworks Procurement, part of Accenture, is a leading procurement consultancy that helps global to mid-size organisations transform procurement into a valuable asset. We know that the best procurement organisations in the world are valuable corporate assets, not only do they deliver savings, reduce risks, and create better value for money, they model future events, improve their organisation's im

We guide organisation through this transformation by first looking at what we call the mechanics: the implementation of technology, process, polices and changes to the organisation structure. These behaviours are outward-facing elements of procurement relating to brand and direction, employee management, stakeholder engagement and performance improvement.
