Modern ERP Class Procurement Systems
ERP systems are among the most important tools in medium and large enterprises, enabling effective management of financial, production, logistics, procurement, and human capital management processes within the organization. The ERP systems market in Poland is growing, with more and more companies reaching for them, seeing in them a tool that can bring tangible benefits, such as:
Process Automation
Reduction in Operating Costs
Conducting business in accordance with the requirements of Polish law
Collecting information in a single, structured database
Over the past several decades, ERP systems have evolved from simple financial and accounting systems and Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP II) into comprehensive solutions covering increasingly extensive areas of enterprise activity.
Today, let’s take a closer look at solutions in the procurement area. An ERP system is no longer just about handling purchase requisitions and orders, which were manually recorded or automatically created by planning tools.
Currently, an ERP system supporting procurement processes is a wide range of products that handle the entire Procure To Pay process, from the initial requisition to payment for delivered products and services, including supplier management, tender procedures, and contract management. The execution of procurement processes is further streamlined by allowing suppliers to enter data directly into the system, eliminating the need for manual document registration by purchasers.
Sygnity Business Solution S.A. has over 20 years of experience in implementing ERP systems, documented by numerous references and certifications. We offer, among others, solutions from Oracle, which support processes carried out in enterprises, including the aforementioned procurement processes. The solution is available in two models:
