Unified Procurement combines all elements of Vendor Overview and Offer Negotiation, while adding a fully managed purchasing experience. Instead of dealing with multiple vendors directly, clients benefit from a single point of contact and simplified billing.

1. Vendor Selection & Negotiation

As in the earlier steps, vendors are identified, evaluated, and negotiated to secure the best pricing and service terms. The selection is tailored to the client’s specific business and cybersecurity needs.

2. Centralized Procurement

The purchase of chosen products and services is carried out under the consulting company’s name, with the solutions then resold to the client. This allows the client to consolidate multiple providers into a single purchasing channel.

3. Unified Billing

All solutions are bundled into one transparent monthly invoice, covering the client’s entire cybersecurity portfolio. This reduces administrative overhead and provides clear visibility of recurring costs.

4. Vendor Relationship Management

The consulting company maintains direct communication with vendors, handling support escalations, SLA clarifications, and ongoing account management. Clients no longer need to spend time navigating vendor bureaucracy.

5. Value-Added Support Services

Basic support is included as part of the service, ensuring smooth day-to-day use of the procured solutions. Where needed, issues are routed and resolved directly with the vendor by the intermediary.

6. Deliverable & Outcome

Clients receive a single, simplified procurement and billing channel for all their cybersecurity solutions, along with peace of mind that negotiations, vendor management, and support are fully handled. For a small service charge, the process transforms fragmented vendor relationships into a unified, managed experience.
