The Adecco Group by the time a transaction reaches that stage, the decision to spend has already been made. Without visibility into what the business is planning to buy before it commits, procurement isn’ t shaping anything. It’ s just processing.
“ A traditional P2P implementation would have taken millions of dollars and more than 100 months of implementation. I wanted to have a super-fast impact, without heavy integrations or investment.” Kai’ s alternative was to start not with the transaction but with the request. Capture demand at the front end. Understand what the business actually needs before it commits to buying anything. Leave the backend systems running exactly as they are.
