The Value of Intelligent Spend Management
Managing spend in an enterprise is a complex task, and one that requires a lot of thought and planning. Amidst a time of dramatic change, business leaders are investing more in technology to solve problems, improve business performance, achieve operational excellence, and generate shareholder value.
Companies are increasingly investing in technology, but the ROI varies.
With Intelligent Spend Management SAP is delivering the solutions its customers use to align every spend decision to their business strategy in the networked economy. Along with delivering business outcomes, SAP also wants to help its customers take a stakeholder view into how their overall spend management function works.
With SAP Intelligent Spend Management, organizations can increase the consistency, quality, and integrity of spend management processes/transactions across functional areas and spend categories and can still control costs with minimum supply chain risk.
