The wait is over. It’s time to level up your procurement process. We understand the challenges businesses face with purchasing. With an average of 20+ steps, multiple approval layers, and manual chasing of various stakeholders, procurement can be a complex process. Many companies struggle to track their purchases and intake requests, leading to maverick spending and compliance risk. That's why we've developed Intelligent Workflows; our custom intake-to-procure automation to secure, simplify and accelerate your procurement processes. Here’s what you can expect: ? Visibility over purchases, renewals and intakes ? Customized workflows and simple intake requests ? Automated accountability, routing and tasking of stakeholders ? All documents, activities and approvals in one place Watch our video below to see Intelligent Workflows in action. Excited?
