How Next-Generation E-Sourcing Fills the Capability Gaps of SAP, Ariba, and Others
Sourcing activities in supply chain-driven companies bear more critical weight than in other industries: The sourcing of suppliers for product materials, ingredients, packaging, production services, and transportation services has direct impact on not just costs but also on the company’s ability to satisfactorily deliver product to customers.
Most of those sourcing teams have already implemented a general procurement suite, likely SAP or Ariba or another solution, which includes an e-sourcing module. By now, initial benefits have been realized and may have plateaued. That also means that the limitations of the suite’s e-sourcing tool are now clear – and too many strategic sourcing events are still being handled using spreadsheets and other “off-line” de-centralized processes because they are not supported by the technology.
Are you among sourcing professionals who are now asking, “What’s next?” to get you to the next phase of savings, productivity, and innovation?
This webcast features CombineNet’s experience in working with industry leaders in manufacturing, retail and logistics to describe:
• Why customers chose to add advanced sourcing technology to their solution mix.
• Research data illustrating the issues with getting more spend strategically e-sourced.
• Clear differences between the technologies available.
• Success stories from real-world implementations.
