Benefits
Core benefits for our customers are:
- easy to learn - an internal shop, in which users file their demand in a homogeneous and standardized way.
- advanced guided buying - the internal shop simplifies product selection to your users massively. They see only products which are cleared for them by your centrally managed procurement governance taking into account the staff member data
- data ownership - data stays in their realm - they do not have to share information with any external third party. They only receive the catalogs from suppliers and send our purchase orders.
- independence - shop users neither have to learn for each supplier a different shop logic nor are they limited by availability and compatibility of supplier punch-out catalogs.
- procurement automation - a centrally managed procurement governance framework defines where goods are procured, also enabling multi-vendor strategies
- category specific workflows - specific categories require tailored workflows
- personal equipment management - when ordering equipment, the human aspect needs special features: body data management, size recognition & keeping, made-2-measure products, ... all this is well integrated into the standard shop

- Enabling procurement automation - once staff member has delivered its requirements through the Shop UI, we have a procurement automation engine through with procurement can setup automatic procurement paths, which again take into account organizational information where to order.
