Pelican Purchasing Launches Innovative New Product
A new, cloud-based, procurement solution designed to provide ‘visibility, management and control over purchasing spend, budgets, stock valuation and supplier invoices,’ Pi aims to helps operators ensure purchasing expenditure is in line with set budgets.
MD Shabaz Mohammed, commented: ‘Pi is a unique solution that provides total visibility, management and control over your purchasing spend, budgets, stock valuation and supplier invoices. It displays a client’s purchasing data in easy-to-understand, detailed graphs, helping you to see what’s actually happening to your supply chain within your business, at any time.’
Additionally, the system delivers alerts notifications if budgets are close to, or have been, exceeded, and provides full visibility over an organisation’s purchasing spend.
‘Invoices are automatically added by Pelican into Pi, meaning clients are not required to manually input purchase information, creating time and efficiency savings,’ added Mr Mohammed.
‘Pi collects live customer invoice data daily, directly from suppliers. ‘Your staff can continue to order as usual, and can see exactly what your organisation is buying. It is extremely transparent and puts you in complete control of your expenditure.’
