• During 2020, Mercell entered the post-award segment through the acquisitions of Tricom, Truelink and Aksess Innkjøp

• The post-award segment covers procurement and ordering, invoicing, payment and accounting and spend analysis

• Meaningful synergies from providing post-award as a part of a full e-procurement suite by utilising data generated in the processes

• The offering makes Mercell a complete provider of e-procurement services representing a unique selling point

• Post-award is not subject to regulations and does therefore not distinguish between public and private entities and provides access to a large number of non-public customers
