BCG Inverto Consultant Procurement case interview

Question

Hi everyone,

Currently preparing for a Procurement Senior Consultant case interview with INVERTO (BCG)

Looking for:
• A case partner to practice with.
• Guidance on procurement / operations-focused cases (cost reduction, sourcing, supplier strategy, etc.)

Comfortable with business fundamentals, and focused on improving case structuring, quantitative problem-solving, and communication.

Open to live cases, drills, and mutual feedback. Flexible on timing.

If you’re prepping for consulting or have relevant case experience, would love to connect.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Happy to help if useful.

I’ve prepared quite a few candidates for consulting interviews in general, and I’ve also done coaching specifically for procurement / operations-related roles, including cost reduction and sourcing-focused cases.

INVERTO cases are usually more operational and implementation-oriented than classic strategy cases, so the preparation should be slightly adapted:

more focus on practical levers
prioritization of savings initiatives
stakeholder / supplier dynamics
realistic implementation considerations

Feel free to DM me whenever you want and we can discuss details / prep approach.

Answer 2

hi!

For INVERTO you don’t need anything fancy, procurement cases follow a very repeatable logic. Here’s the short version.

For practice: look for partners who’ve done ops or supply‑chain cases, not just classic profitability. You can also post in case groups and mention INVERTO specifically to attract the right people.

For content: procurement cases usually fall into three themes, cost reduction, supplier strategy, or sourcing. The structure is almost always: understand the spend, identify cost drivers, assess supplier market, then define levers like consolidation, renegotiation, make‑or‑buy, spec changes, or process improvements. Quant is straightforward: savings calculations, should‑cost, volume‑price effects.
