Implementing negotiated agreements consistently across the company
is a key step in effective strategic sourcing. However, traditional
methods that rely on hardcopy and individually generated emails
are ineffective tools in communicating and managing newly sourced
deals. That can result in poorly implemented contracts—or worse,
other groups wasting resources and time negotiating “maverick”
deals with different vendors.
Our Solution
The eBreviate eSourcing Suite's Deal Management module provides
an enterprise-wide communication tool used to “market”
your deals and educate your employees on new agreements in a consistent
manner, especially in large and decentralized organizations. This
tool allows users to store contract-related information in a centralized
location that is easily accessible to all authorized users through
the Internet. With automatic email notifications, users are also
always made aware of important changes to deals and upcoming contract-related
activities. The result: improved contract compliance throughout
your entire company and increased realization of identified savings.
