Case Study: Oxford Brookes University achieves controlled spend and greater purchasing efficiency with Advanced Cloud Marketplace

Oxford Brookes University increases purchasing efficiency and ensures controlled spend with Advanced Cloud Marketplace

Oxford Brookes University wanted to make purchasing more efficient, improve compliance with preferred supplier contracts, and gain better control and visibility over spend across the University. It also needed accurate product and pricing data and a way to support the cultural shift to mandatory rules-based procurement, using Advanced Cloud Marketplace.

Advanced implemented Advanced Cloud Marketplace to provide an easy-to-use catalogue, up-to-date pricing, and clearer contract visibility across commodities. The solution helped users adapt quickly, place orders and request quotes more effectively, and make better buying decisions. The directly attributable annualised run-rate for efficiency improvements is around £40k, with cashable savings from improved contract terms and better purchasing choices.
