The findings of the first of a series of online surveys by Financial Director magazine and Expense Reduction Analysts have been published.

In response to the question: Is the Government doing enough to address the UK’s fiscal deficit? the majority of respondents (59%) felt that the current plan is not effective; whilst 19% were not drawn but concluded that the Conservatives will have to fix it.  However more than a fifth (22%) were of the opinion that the Government was doing enough and felt confident  that it will be cut in the time it has been promised by Labour.

The next survey, which can be found at www.financialdirector.co.uk, will look at what cost savings organisations are hoping to achieve in 2010 against the backdrop of continued uncertainty.

Expense Reduction Analysts have partnered with Financial Director Magazine and have created the definitive ‘Cost Control Check List’.  This is an informative guide aimed at Financial Directors, emphasising the importance of cost control and highlighting effective ways on how savings can be made.  This essential guide instills the Expense Reduction Analysts’ brand name into our key market target audience and further enhances why we are the leading company in cost and Purchase management.  The Guide is sent to over 16 thousand subscribers of  Financial Director magazine, 90 percent of these are Financial Directors of companies with a turnover of over 10 million with over 100 employees, reaching our core target audience.

Keep Cost and Purchase Management at the top of your agenda.

There is no doubt cost and purchase management made it to the top of the agenda in most boardrooms during the economic downturn. As focus gradually starts to switch back to growth, it’s important to maintain focus on making savings and identify areas for ongoing reductions in the future.

In light of this, Expense Reduction Analysts has published ‘Board Report’, a practical guide to best practice in cost and purchase management which has been carried in Financial Director Magazine. It includes case studies of private and public sector organisations that have successfully implemented cost management strategies, words of wisdom from board directors and a look forward to the issues facing business in 2010.
