Organizations Embracing Environmental Sustainability in the office.
As more organizations embrace corporate sustainability goals, they’re increasingly looking for suppliers to help "green” their organization’s purchasing behaviors. As a result, we’re seeing growing demand for eco-conscious products as well as for value-added solutions, such as reporting that tracks environmental spend.
To meet this demand, Alliance Cost Containment offers select Vendor contracts with suppliers who may, for example, develop innovative eco-conscious products, such as a line of paper and notebooks made from sugar cane waste and our Sustainable Earth brand of cleaning supplies.
Through collaboration with our suppliers we can conduct campaigns to help drive more end user purchasing towards green products and also make it easy for them to recycle consumables such as ink and toner cartridges.

Law Firm Saves $250,000 with ACC On The Case 
According to a December 2010 Citi Bank report, managing partners at U.S. law firms are becoming increasingly concerned about the reduced profit margins that are a result of increasing pricing pressures.
As one large regional law firm with 250 lawyers and offices in 24 states recently discovered, one of the best ways to make money is by saving it and reducing costs.
This firm hired Alliance Cost Containment to review their expenses and negotiate improved pricing and service terms with key vendors. Not only did ACC help our client consolidate their vendors, we were also able to implement some new vendors with equal or improved customer service to that which they were accustomed.
ACC’s national supplier contracts and thorough review process produced over $250,000 annual savings in the following areas:
· $120,000 savings on office supplies
· $60,000 savings on wireless telecom
· $42,000 savings on express mail
· $28,000 savings on printing
