In an office environment, there are many moving parts needed to ensure a smooth-sailing and streamlined operation. Without a trusted range of office suppliers, your entire system may start to break down.

Identifying, acquiring, and handling such suppliers and their resources are crucial steps in office supply management. See how your business can benefit from centralised and effective office supply management with n3.

1. Inventory costs are reduced

Ensuring Office necessities are always in stock and readily available is a great way to save on both time and inventory costs. Without a routine order and stock check in place, office staff may find themselves rushing around reactively gathering last-minute essentials. Not only does this waste both time and money, you may also pay more for such items due to the urgency of delivery.

*Saving is a guide only and will vary depending on basket of goods purchased.

Knowing n3’s procurement team have done the negotiating for you means you can focus on the more important things

2. Better organisation through consolidating

Buying from an array of different suppliers can get complicated. With so many reports and receipts to analyse and file, this task can soon become arduous and time-consuming. Is there a way to consolidate ordering of different categories to one Supplier? This will help you save both time in ordering and money on delivery costs. n3 Supplier OfficeMax is a one-stop-shop for all your office essentials, plus they can help with your café and hygiene supplies too, plus a typical Member saves 22% with OfficeMax. *Saving is a guide only and will vary depending on basket of goods purchased.

Many n3 Suppliers offer consolidated invoices - meaning you get one bill for all purchases and orders in a given timeframe. Some of these include:

● Mercury
● OfficeMax
