Procurement and supplier management
Strategic purchasing to guarantee your success
Tap into new potential for your company with the right purchasing management. This involves looking at individual areas as a continuous data flow from enquiry through to auditing. This effectively prevents any delays and inaccuracies such as work overload or over-staffing in the individual fields of activity.
ORDAT views all aspects of purchasing as a unit and as strategic components of the company because a one percent saving in purchasing can increase the corporate profile by up to ten percent. A one percent growth in sales however, only results in 0.1 percent increased profit.
Optimum overview: Accurate portrayal of all standard processes
ORDAT.ERP purchase, on the other hand, views the purchasing functions as one unit and thus avoids weak points. All work steps which occur in operational practice – creation and administration of master data, transaction processing, information and statistics – are handled in an integrated manner. This allows the standard processes of an order transaction from order entry to goods receipt and invoice verification to be processed effectively and displayed exactly. The modular structure allows the internal organisation to be flexibly adapted. The dialogue work allows for quick processing and immediate information.
The benefits at a glance
Avoiding input errors
Through the integration of scanners and conveyor technology, you receive a completely automated incoming goods management. The goods are booked into the system by means of a simple scanning process, which saves both time and costs. Even the potential errors caused by manual inputs are avoided.
No production bottlenecks
Our automatic order generation from demands prevents production bottlenecks.
This not only increases you failure safety but also saves you time.
Large amounts of data - minimal effort
The incoming goods booking and the processing of necessary documents are carried out in digital form in the requested formats. A time-consuming processing on paper is not applicable. This also results in a shortening of, e.g., your response times with regard to a customer’s changing demands.
Price transparency
Transparent structure of price and supplier quality from one central source.
In doing so, you receive an improvement of supplier management.
Automated provision-workflow
All production steps involved in the process are displayed in one work process. Thus, you can always obtain a complete overview of the goods status, work processes and stocks.
Approval processes with one click
The approval process for orders can now be completed online with a single mouse click. You save a lot of work and waiting times.
