Running a business means managing countless expenses—from office supplies and technology to shipping, vehicles, and communications. For many companies, controlling these costs while keeping day-to-day operations running smoothly can be a challenge.
NuEdge Business offers a practical way for companies to address those challenges through group purchasing. By aggregating the purchasing power of participating businesses, NuEdge Business provides access to negotiated programs and savings designed to help companies reduce expenses and simplify operations.
NuEdge Business is a group purchasing organization designed to help businesses benefit from the power of aggregation. Rather than every company negotiating individually with suppliers, NuEdge works with service and supplier partners to make negotiated program pricing available to eligible businesses.
The program is designed for a broad range of businesses. Organizations of different sizes and types—including service and goods businesses as well as local, regional, and national organizations—can enroll.
Even businesses that don’t have large purchasing volumes may find value in having access to programs negotiated through a larger purchasing network.
The best part: there are no membership fees to enroll.
That can make the program worth exploring for businesses looking for ways to reduce operating costs without adding another recurring membership expense.
NuEdge Business provides access to programs covering several areas of business operations.
Office supplies are a routine expense for virtually every organization. NuEdge Business partners with Staples to provide businesses with access to benefits associated with doing business through the program.
For companies that regularly purchase office products and workplace essentials, having a dedicated purchasing program can provide another avenue for managing those recurring costs.
For organizations that rely on vehicles, purchasing the right fleet can be a significant investment.
MKT Fleet offers a program which is designed to make business vehicle purchases easier. The program includes options for business vehicles, including work trucks, cars, and delivery vans, as well as purchasing resources.
Shipping expenses can add up quickly, particularly for businesses that regularly move products, equipment, or other materials.
NuEdge Business works with logistics partners including OptiFreight Logistics and TRIOSE. OptiFreight focuses on small-parcel and freight management, while TRIOSE provides solutions for large cargo and parcel shipping.
Having access to specialized freight-management programs can help businesses take a closer look at shipping costs and gain greater visibility into this area of their operations.
Technology has become essential to nearly every modern business. Hardware, software, cloud services, cybersecurity, and other IT requirements can represent substantial ongoing expenses.
Insight’s NuEdge Business program offers savings on IT solutions and services. This gives participating businesses another potential avenue for managing technology-related purchasing.
Keeping employees connected is another important operational expense.
AT&T Wireless offers program with savings of up to 24% on monthly service charges for qualified plans through the applicable employee program. Eligibility and program terms apply.
For businesses with multiple employees using wireless services, opportunities to reduce recurring communication expenses can be especially valuable.
Some organizations also have specialized waste-management requirements.
NuEdge Business partners with Stericycle for compliant collection, transportation, treatment, and disposal of medical waste. This type of program can be particularly relevant to organizations that need specialized waste-management services.
The potential value of a group purchasing organization isn’t limited to price.
Businesses often spend significant amounts of time researching suppliers, comparing options, negotiating contracts, and managing purchasing decisions. NuEdge Business positions its service and supplier partners as a way to help businesses save both time and money, allowing owners and employees to focus more attention on their core responsibilities.
This can be particularly useful for smaller organizations where employees frequently handle multiple responsibilities.
Reducing business expenses doesn’t always require making major changes. Sometimes, meaningful improvements come from taking a closer look at expenses the company already has.
That’s where NuEdge Business can be worth exploring. Instead of changing how a company operates from the ground up, businesses can review available purchasing programs and identify areas where negotiated pricing or specialized services may fit existing needs.
Every dollar saved on routine operating expenses is a dollar that can potentially be redirected toward growth, employees, customer service, or other business priorities.
NuEdge Business provides businesses with access to group purchasing programs designed to help reduce costs and simplify purchasing across several everyday operational categories. From office supplies and technology to fleet vehicles, shipping, wireless services, and waste management, the available programs give businesses multiple areas to explore.
For companies looking for additional ways to manage operating expenses, exploring the available NuEdge Business programs could be a worthwhile first step.
