► About Expense Reduction Analysts
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Expense Reduction Analysts is one of the largest specialist consultancies in
cost management worldwide; for over 20 years, we have allowed businesses
to gain greater financial scope to bring their projects to life - whatever these
may be.
Expense Reduction Analysts consultants are experienced professionals who
know that the key to great results is to have an in-depth comprehension of
industry sectors and suppliers’ activities. This intimate understanding and
“insider” knowledge enables them to present you with the best bespoke
solutions for your company.
► What we do?
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
ERA believes that all organizations deserve the best supplier relationships at
the lowest cost. However, ERA's 20+ years of experience in delivering over
18,000 client projects consistently shows that the vast majority of companies
are systematically over-paying their suppliers.
ERA wants organizations to feel confident that they’re not leaving money on
the table, and if they are, ERA shows them where it is, how much it is, and,

will even get it for them. Companies are surprised by how ERA consistently
finds an additional 10%-30% savings in some of their most significant expense
categories, and those savings represent a significant boost to their cash flow
that can be put back to work in their business.
► What I do?
▬▬▬▬▬▬
As CEO, my focus is to grow the business and to make sure our clients
are delighted with our results. Over the past 25 years, ERA has assisted
businesses find additional cash flow to put towards initiatives to continue
growing their business.
