Bryn Melyn Care was shown well over £100,000 in annual savings by Cost and Expense Solutions

Bryn Melyn Care has become established as the sector leader in the provision of long-term therapeutic care for adolescents with head offices based in Telford and a large number of sites in both England and Wales.

Cost and Expense Solutions has worked with Bryn Melyn for over 18 months. After initially being drafted in to review mobile communications spend, Cost and Expense Solutions were later asked to look at all communication needs as well as gas and electricity at all sites.

 "After Cost and Expense solutions initially reported and implemented savings of over 25% for our mobile communications, we were keen to ask them to look at more areas of expenditure. We have been continuously surprised with the levels of reporting and savings we have been able to make with minimal disruption to our business and

staff resources. The result of cost and expense solutions work has given us well over £100,000 annual savings. We have no hesitation in recommending Cost and Expense solutions to any business or organisation that wishes to reduce its overheads and improve its profits".

Savings have been made in several areas but of particular note is 20% on stationery and printing costs, 10% on fuel and travel expenses and 10% on waste management.

"Cost and Expense Solutions reviewed our current needs and then reported some alternative communication solutions, one of which we immediately acted on. This has resulted in our staff being a lot more contactable, providing us with a much better service at a fraction of the expected costs. We are currently saving around £65,000.00 per year. Having nearly no time to concentrate on making detailed reports on our possible areas of savings we were happy to employ the services of Cost and Expense Solutions on a no-saving-no-fee basis.
