Commercial Negotiation · Procurement Advisory · London
Most companies negotiate a major contract once every few years. The account team across the table does it every week. Pactis Partners levels the table — on the buy side and the sell side.

The Practice
Consultancies write strategy decks. Training firms teach courses. We sit at the table — leading or shadowing every round — until the agreement is signed on better terms.
Professional procurement discipline for organisations without a procurement function — or ones that need reinforcement on a deal that matters.
We have spent a career as the buyer. We know what procurement will demand, where they hold leverage, and what they will trade — before they do it to you.
Prep-room support for leadership teams ahead of a specific major negotiation — either side of the table.
The Method
We take your key supplier contracts and map the exposure: renewal dates, auto-renewal traps, indexation clauses, termination risk — and a prioritised plan for where negotiation will move money.
AI-accelerated contract analysis and benchmarking, combined with professional negotiation planning: positions, fallbacks, concession strategy. Every output is reviewed by a negotiator before it reaches you.
We lead or shadow every round through to signature. The deliverable is not a report — it is a signed agreement on better terms.
Every engagement is scoped individually and priced as a fixed fee — no open-ended day rates, no surprises. Where it aligns interests, we will put part of our fee at risk against verified savings. Enquire for a proposal.

The Standard
A negotiator is only worth engaging if their only incentive is your outcome. Four commitments, published and non-negotiable.
We never act on both sides of the same negotiation. Ever.
We never act against a current client — on any matter, for anyone.
Any sector overlap is disclosed before engagement, not discovered after it.
We take no commissions, referral fees or incentives from suppliers. None.
On tooling: a proprietary AI pipeline for contract review, clause analysis and negotiation preparation compresses weeks of analysis into days — so senior attention goes where it matters, the negotiation itself. Every output is reviewed by a negotiator before it reaches a client, and client materials are handled under strict confidentiality and data-protection controls.
The Gap
Strategy decks are everywhere. Negotiation training is everywhere. But a firm that prepares the position, sits in the room, and stays until signature — as a fixed-fee service — barely exists. That gap is where Pactis Partners lives.
