Premier Buying Group
"One of the primary reasons we joined a buying group was because I found I was spending excessive periods of time trying to negotiate discounts with our major suppliers instead of concentrating on the job I was qualified to do.

In 2011, we decided to join a buying group because ultimately if customers cannot afford your fees, they are going to go elsewhere. Practices need to price their services and products high enough to make a profit but low enough to remain competitive.
Larger practices have more clout with manufacturers because they buy more and therefore are able to secure better discounts. An advantage of buying groups is that they are able to negotiate better manufacturer rebates as a result of consolidated purchasing power, and we were keen to capitalise on the cost savings which can be achieved by joining a buying group.
Finding the right group was more complicated than we thought though, because there are so many to choose from, and it was important to us to ensure that not only was the fee structure right for us but that it would not compromise the way we wanted to continue to run the practice. After a lot of research, we opted for the Premier Vet Alliance (PVA) buying group membership of over 350 practices.
There is no advance payment requirement with the PVA buying group, although we did pay a one-off joining fee. The fact that there is no fixed percentage management fee, which with some buying groups can mean that any purchasing savings are counterbalanced by the fee, was another plus. Instead, membership of the buying group is just 250 a year, regardless of spend.
Lastly, membership of the buying group has probably saved us around 6,000 a quarter, but the most significant benefit is that it has allowed us to pass on these savings to our customers, enabling us to remain competitive and so retain and increase our client base, without which we could not survive.
