- The system automates and streamlines procurement processes, reducing manual efforts, speeding order processing, and enhancing efficiency.
Enable smoother operations through enhanced ability to align procurement schedules with item demand needs.
Boosted productivity for procurement team by automating order processing and data entry.
Improved supplier relations and data-driven decisions
- Real-time inventory access and accurate data improve supplier communication, negotiation terms, and reliability.
- It also supports strategic purchasing decisions based on actual demand, market trends, and supplier performance.
Improvement in delivery lead times from key suppliers through better data sharing and collaboration.
Building stronger partnerships with suppliers leading to more flexible and responsive supply chain arrangements.

Value to Finance
Receive more accurate global reporting and free up capital for more effective deployment.
Free-up capital tied in spare parts inventory
- Right-size your balance sheets by establishing an accurate baseline of parts
- Maintained accuracy allows for ordering only when required and not urgently or in-excess
20%+ inventory is excess that can be reduced over-time
Enhanced financial reporting and forecasting
- Accurate consumption data can drive better forecasting
- Monthly reporting of parts will become more accurate and with proper documentation for goods received, parts consumed, and any variance
"This has potential to reduce our time to churn our monthly and year-end closing reports and make it less painful"
Streamlined invoicing and payment processing
- Better communications across teams and offices from requisition to goods received
- Automated notifications for GD/GR help with timing payments (or withholding in case of incorrect deliveries)
"Digital GD/GR and the trail of documents can help with payments and closing of POs"
Meta-data for better accounting allocation
- Digital labels for refurbished, recycled or other relevant titles can help with allocating properly
- Proper labelling can also assist with ESG reporting and Carbon Accounting
"We have parts that are recycled that we don't track in the system and this would be a huge step forward for our ESG reporting"
Reduced risk of fraud and errors
- Workflow based software build and tracking of activities reduces theft or fraud
- Little to no room for Data Errors in tightly controlled workflows that allow for proper auditing and governance
"Our biggest problem is theft and there is no way know how much is stolen every year, this kind of tracking can reduce it significantly"
