Austerity strategies enforced by purchasing departments of large organisations are spotlighting capabilities of key suppliers to support "punchout" standards.
|
Many of the UK’s and Europe's largest organisations are requesting key suppliers integrate with their ordering systems so they can streamline their purchasing and unlock supply chain savings.
For suppliers who need to engage, Netalogue have turnkey punchout solutions available that connect to almost every major purchasing solution.
Over the past 10 years we have connected numerous SME suppliers to enterprise buyers typically operating purchasing systems like SAP, Ariba and Oracle. Netalogue solutions also integrate with all leading public sector purchasing marketplaces, many of which are growing in significance due to widespread austerity measures and include PECOS, Open, @UK Marketplace and Zanzibar.
New tender documents are frequently requesting suppliers include punchout capabilities in order for enterprise buyers to reduce their costs associated with purchasing (by as much as 15%).

How we typically work?
|
The average Netalogue punchout solution customer is typically a "selling" company that has been directly requested to support a punchout standard in a new RFP or alternatively an important existing customer who in most cases is usually a large organisation that is operating an electronic purchasing system and wants to drive further cost savings and spend efficiencies by streamlining their supply chain.
Start to finish, the project specification process can usually be completed within a few phone calls and emails. It is certainly not unusual for straight forward solutions to be scheduled for development within days of the project proposal being agreed and commissioned.
Most companies want to know what they will be expected to do - once Netalogue have established which specific purchasing system the buying company is operating (e.g. Ariba, SAP, Oracle, etc..) it is normally a very simple case of determining what products or services the supplier needs to represent in the punchout solution and how they would like to maintain them. It is at this stage that many newcomers to this type of technology are happy to learn Netalogue can either offer seamless integration with their own systems or even setup links to standard spreadsheets like Microsoft Excel.
Having worked in this field for over 10 years Netalogue are experts at being able to quickly boil down what (and who) the key enablers of your project are and how to ensure these are most effectively managed to guarantee the project come in on-time and on-budget.
