The procure-to-pay process is a complex one that benefits greatly from automation, from needs analysis to the production of buy requisitions and purchase orders to the payment of the final vendor invoice.
FREMONT, CA: Businesses, large and small, rely on their procurement function to save money and provide value by keeping spending under control and supplier relationships strong and good. However, suppose one's business continues to rely on manual workflows and paper-based procurement processes. In that case, one is missing out on the essential benefits of procurement management software—and losing money and value in the process.
One may use the power of a digital procurement solution to streamline, automate, and optimize one's entire procurement process, capture cost and generate value, and provide the groundwork for enterprise-wide digital transformation.
Every procurement system will have its own unique set of features, but in general, a good procurement management software solution will include, at the very least:
Procure-to-pay (P2P) Optimization: The procure-to-pay process is a complex one that benefits greatly from automation, from needs analysis to the production of buy requisitions and purchase orders to the payment of the final vendor invoice.
Source-to-Pay (S2P) and Source-to-Contract (S2C) Optimization: The S2P method expands on the P2P approach by obtaining spend sources through requests for quotes (RFQs) or requests for proposals (RFPs), rather than simply selecting the best existing vendor. S2C entails establishing a formal contractual connection with the chosen provider. With contract management features that cover all stages of the contract lifecycle, the best procurement software makes both of these tasks considerably easier.
Supplier Management: One's supply chain is reliant on strong, strategic partnerships with the vendors who offer the goods and services that keep one's business running. A good procurement solution will include tools for simply tracking supplier performance and compliance data and capabilities for collaboration and process improvement.
Category Management: With the appropriate procurement system, one can arrange all of one's expenditure data for maximum transparency, savings, and value.
