Buyers suffer from limited transparency on purchasing volumes and the quality

of vendors, with poor visibility of centrally negotiated quotations, contracts, and

conditions. In addition, many companies lack standardized procurement processes

and strategic planning.

Limited transparency on purchasing volume

and vendor quality leads to reduced bargaining

power with suppliers. This can result in potentially

higher prices and increased transaction costs.

Meanwhile, a lack of long-term supply planning

results in decentralized, ad hoc, and shortened

procurement processes. These “emergency

purchases” often circumvent established tender

procedures and can provide unfavorable terms

for the buyer.

Limited transparency of centrally negotiated

quotations, contracts, and conditions may lead

to lost discounts and higher prices. In addition,

a lack of standardized procurement processes

can result in the bypassing of preferred vendors

and negotiated prices.

Uncertainty regarding future customer demand

leads to a lack of clarity concerning production,

purchasing, and transport requirements.

And as inventory levels increase to ensure that

stock-outs don’t occur, liquidity decreases.

Due to economic difficulties or strong buying

power, customers may pay late or not at all.

Furthermore, banks may tighten credit lines

or block credit.

A strategic spend-management approach helps

companies to overcome these challenges.

Procurement



Close collaboration with suppliers helps organizations to forecast demand,

anticipate requirements, streamline processes, and reduce working capital.

Companies can optimize business cycles with fully integrated solutions that

support comprehensive processes for procure to pay and logistics.

Achieving Procurement Excellence

Companies must focus on enhancing opera-

tional efficiencies through tactical steps that

eliminate waste and create a seamless

procurement flow, from requisition to payment.

This can create a significant competitive

advantage by reducing operating costs

throughout the procurement process, maxi-

mizing savings, and optimizing the ROI

of procurement assets. To achieve this,

companies must first address four key issues.

First, they must implement a holistic

compliance program. This enables them to

achieve compliance goals and improve spend

visibility.

Second, they must establish a comprehensive

supplier framework. This enables them to

assess, develop, audit, and integrate suppliers

using robust quality and performance metrics

that optimize the supplier base and reduce risk.

Third, companies must standardize and

optimize processes by leveraging best

practices and standard management principles,

helping them to realize maximum value. Using

software to automate processes helps to drive

down process costs further.

Fourth, companies must develop and

implement risk management capabilities to

assess risk, define risk response, and measure

key metrics. This improves overall control and

mitigates costly supply chain disruptions.

Procurement



Implementing a holistic procurement strategy delivers rapid return on investment.

By making real-time purchasing data available globally, companies can enhance

productivity, support cost control, and improve liquidity.

Real-Time Decisions for a Competitive Edge

Effective management of purchasing processes

improves the operational efficiency and productivity of an organization. Companies can

execute their full purchasing power in vendor

negotiations, enforce central strategic vendor

decisions, and optimize buying patterns.

With a centralized purchasing solution in place,

companies can support vendor evaluations

and enable organizations to integrate suppliers

into their own operational processes. They can

also reduce costs by lowering inventory levels

and consolidating shipments and enhance

user productivity with easy-to-use self-service

functionality.

Automated functionality allows organizations to

perform automatic runs of routine tasks and

determine appropriate suppliers for different requirements. Automatic conversion of

purchase requisitions into purchase orders

improves the efficiency of workflows, while

automated settlement of goods receipts and electronic data interchange (EDI) functionality

also streamlines processes.

Support for gross and net posting of invoices

received, as well as block and release

functionality and flexible tolerance handling,

provides buyers with the control they need to

carry out tasks efficiently.

Meanwhile, three-way matching improves the

accuracy and speed of invoice processing while

cross-company invoice verification improves

transparency. In addition, subsequent

settlement functionality enables companies to

process payments separately based on specific

criteria being met.

invoices, and deploy individual payment rules to benefit

payable integrated into the general ledger and

supports all standard payment methods.

Cash management updates flow from invoice

data for liquidity checks. All country-specific

payment formats can be leveraged for
