The procurement process in SAP^® – step on the gas, not the brakes

Procurement processes in companies have a high potential for optimization. Purchasing should be effective – but there are many small processes within procurement management which cause problems. Paper-based processes distributed across several locations – lack of transparency already obscures the procurement process, and many other phenomena, such as maverick buying are the result.
