Pure Purchasing Consultants have a range of services that deliver practical solutions to help you focus on growing your business. They understand that even though in-house staff may know exactly what needs to be done, it can be difficult to find the time or resources to keep control or move projects forward easily and efficiently.

They will help you run a more effective and sustainable business while saving costs. If your procurement strategies have evolved organically, they can provide transparent and impartial advice and expertise.

From getting a handle on your current contracts and suppliers, to executing infrastructure projects, all you need to do is get in touch and they’ll take it from there.

Look out for David at our First Friday events and have a chat!

More about Beeiit….

We are a new business founded by EHS professionals with over 14 years’ experience in different industries. Founded in 2020, we are based in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, and work with businesses across the UK, thanks to our online services.

Much like many people worldwide, the COVID-19 pandemic forced a re-evaluation of what’s most important in life from family to careers, and what motivates us and gets us out of bed in the morning, Beeiit moved from aspirations to reality and continues to evolve.

Our consultants and subject matter experts work collaboratively with businesses and public sector organisations to improve and streamline their health and safety practices and equip them to work more sustainably and minimise environmental impacts.  We take a personal approach to supporting your business in risk management, governance, and compliance. Our flexible support packages include full audits and detailed action plans, with a personal follow-up service and aftercare.

Everything we do is broken down into bitesize steps that are easy to follow. Without the unnecessary ‘padding’. We pride ourselves on the quality of our work and services, and our personable approach to help businesses get the most out of what we provide. We’ve been in your shoes so we know what it’s like and how challenging it can be. This makes us more engaging and relatable to everyone to support your business towards a safer and more sustainable way of working.
