We provide comprehensive end-to-end indirect procurement services organized around three pillars: Business Procurement Outsourcing (BPO), Consortia Buying and Procurement Advisory Services. From strategic sourcing and category management to Source-to-Contract and Source-to-Pay transformation, we combine deep domain expertise, collective purchasing power and AI-driven technology to drive cost savings, resilience, sustainability and world-class digitalization across our clients' procurement functions.

Our purpose is to transform non-strategic procurement costs into strategic business value. It has always been our vision to be recognized as the world's leading independent provider of indirect procurement services — achieving this by building an exceptional team of talented thought leaders and an environment where our people can thrive. Simply smart.

Our values of respect, care and teaming form the basis of our corporate culture. We foster a culture of growth, bold thinking and entrepreneurial ownership. Client centricity is at our core — we listen to our clients' business goals daily, and market and supplier expertise matters only when it yields real results for the people we serve.

Chain IQ's vision for ESG is to deliver an environmentally and socially conscious procurement service. As a member of the United Nations Global Compact since 2016, we take corporate citizenship seriously across all levels and functions. Our dedicated International ESG Advisory Board — uniting senior leaders from global finance, procurement, regulation and academia — embeds sustainability, ethics and resilience across the value chain. We embed environmental and social standards directly into our clients' sourcing and procurement supply chains.

We are passionate and committed to giving back to our communities. In the US, our team participated in a Volunteer Day honoring Juneteenth, partnering with local community organizations to create positive impact through a variety of projects. Community engagement is part of who we are as a global team.
