As a buyer you are not always the most visible within your organization organisation and you are not always brought into the purchasing process at the proper time. You may also often be working with incomplete information. In combination, this can lead to improper or even illegal purchases taking place.
As a purchasing department you want to have a grip on all purchasing needs within your organizationorganisation. You want to be able to advise and support. You know best how to get the most value out of the market.
Intake management is the portal from your colleagues to purchasing. It asks the right questions in a user-friendly way to map out purchasing needs. Each purchasing need is therefore always fully described, allowing you to safeguard the purchasing policy and deliver maximum added value to your organizationorganisation.

Procurement is a complex and time-consuming process - especially when it takes place entirely via e-mail and using tools like Word and Excel.

Contracting new suppliers is not the end of the process, it is just the start. Organizations Organisations can quickly have thousands of contracts, and that number rapidly grows.

Commonly, there is also an insufficient understanding of the intended contract objectives, which means that contracts do not deliver what is expected of them.
As a contract manager you want to have a grip on contracts and you want to be in control of realizing realising intended contract objectives. This can save you between 5% and 10% of the contract value.
Mercell allows contract managers to unambiguously and transparently record all agreements with suppliers, signed contracts, and any contract changes. This allows managers to proactively manage and focus on realizing realising the intended contract value and manage the relationship.

These are all questions that you want to be able to answer easily but whose answers are often spread throughout the organizationorganisation.
To be able to focus on realizing realising objectives and managing relationships, as a supplier manager you want to have all data immediately available, without having to worry about whether it is up to date. You also don’t want to manage everything yourself, but rather work collaboratively with your supplier.

You can request documents via Mercell and suppliers can manage their data themselves. This saves time and allows both of you to focus on maximizing maximising outcomes.
