At 8,516 meters, Lhotse is one of the highest mountains on earth.
The reason why you probably do not know about it: it sits right next to Mount Everest. Attention is focused on the highest mountain on earth - its smaller neighbour Lhotse remains unnoticed. It's a similar story with tactical spend. In companies across all sizes, the optimisation focus in on the strategic 80% of costs. The remaining 20% of 'tactical spend' remains invisible - and, therefore, unoptimised.
... We are changing that
We empower everyone to procure with excellence, ease, and minimal effort.
WHAT WE VALUE ↓
TAKE ACTION TO SUMMIT
Every climb brings unexpected challenges that require solutions. We take ownership to drive those as, after all, it’s hands-on mentality and actions that helps us ascend.
# OWNERSHIP
BE QUICK WITHOUT BEING RECKLESS
Our climb is persistent and fast. Despite the intensity on the way, we remain pragmatic and flexible to garner opportunities that help us go faster while staying focused on mission success.
# ACTION
COMMUNICATE PROACTIVELY
We share what we perceive and learn along the route. Frequent and clear communication enables us to evaluate and stay on the best path toward customer value.
# DIRECTNESS
CLIMB AS A ROPE TEAM
A great team is the core of each mission. At Lhotse, everyone has a clear responsibility to contribute to our ascent and we rely on one another on the way.
# ROPE-TEAM
START EVERY JOURNEY AT THE BASE CAMP
We approach every day and project with a learning mindset, individually and as a team. The confidence and support on that growth journey form our Base Camp.
