Transforming Procurement Efficiency
Goal
Eliminate operational bottlenecks and scale profitably. The goal was to streamline procurement administrative tasks using AI and automation, reducing manual workload.
Result
Established a resilient, automated back-end that delivered a 40% reduction in administrative procurement workload and a 30% acceleration in scheduling.
Challenges
1. Fixing Workflow Problems: Manual work and separate systems like SAP Ariba slowed things down and raised costs. Connecting all systems into one platform made it easier to manage data for buying, shipping, and finance, cutting admin work by 40%.
2. Improving Vendor Updates: Staff spent too much time emailing 24 vendors about schedule changes. Using smart AI agents to send updates automatically sped up scheduling and buying by 30%.
3. Reducing Risk: The company didn’t get early warnings about global events that could hurt supply chains. AI tools now scan worldwide news and give alerts, helping avoid big delays and saving thousands in extra shipping costs.
