Procurement Technology Requirements Gathering and Supplier Selection Services
Requirements Gathering and Vendor Selection from Corcentric’s Procurement Technology Advisers helps organizations establish world-class supply chain partnerships.
Across every industry, Procurement professionals are eager to embrace new technologies and embark on a digital Procurement Transformation. Oftentimes, this eagerness leads Procurement to jump into the technology landscape without a full understanding of their organization’s unique needs let alone how they may evolve. As a result, Procurement teams are left spinning their wheels trying to make sense of platform after platform or worse: implementing a tool that lacks the true functionality the team needs.
Corcentric’s Procurement Technology advisers save Procurement teams the overwhelm of navigating the vast P2P and S2P technology landscape by focusing what’s most crucial: addressing business objectives – beginning with defining feature and functionality requirements. Our technology consultants partner with client Procurement teams to assess the function’s maturity and answer the following questions:
What are the challenges Procurement is looking to address with its new technology?
How will a new technology make it easier to deliver on Procurement’s business objectives?
Which processes is Procurement looking to amend? How will a new solution help?
Are Procurement’s people equipped to implement and leverage a new solution?
How can Procurement best align its new solution to enhance the business?
What level of implementation support will Procurement require?
