Case Study: Enfield Council achieves tighter control over indirect spend with Absoft's self-service procurement solution

Enfield Council streamlines procurement for 10,000+ staff with Absoft

Enfield Council faced the challenge of tightening control over its indirect spend, such as on office supplies and consumables, to ensure taxpayer money was spent effectively. Following an internal audit, the council approached vendor Absoft to develop a more efficient purchase requisition and approval process.

Absoft implemented a self-service procurement solution using SAP UI5 technology, creating an intuitive user-interface for occasional users. The solution streamlined the procure-to-pay process, providing better budget control with an early warning system for approvers and integrating with online supplier catalogues. This resulted in improved data quality, less paper-based administration, and a reduction in over-expenditure for Enfield Council.
