Basware Purchase
All daily orders under management with a central online purchasing platform.
Automation of indirect procurement
Routine products are typically ordered adhoc, ordered from lots of different suppliers and within the department that needs the products. This indirect purchasing, nonproduct related purchasing or tail spend, has many (hidden) costs and compliance risks.
Ideally, orders remain decentralized, but indirect purchasing is regulated by working with preferred suppliers, contracts and purchase orders.
The benefits of a central purchasing platform
To decentralize and regulate the indirect purchasing process, a central purchasing platform is necessary. A "corporate webshop" where employees themselves can order products from preferred suppliers for their daily operations. The benefits:
- Expenses come under management
- Gain insight into business expenses
- Make more favorable arrangements with preferred suppliers
- Reduce operational costs for the ordering process
- Invoice processing is fully automated

Webinar
Webinar Purchase to pay automation
Direct procurement is usually well organized. Indirect purchasing is not. Despite total spend being small, ordering frequency is high and so are hidden costs. With Basware purchase, tail spend can be brought under management, while ordering is done by the business.
