A Advanced Case Study
Sphere Medical develops and manufactures patient monitoring equipment for critical care, and needed to automate and consolidate purchasing while maintaining quality compliance. Its order processing was time consuming, visibility into spend was limited, and the company needed systems to support growth and efficiency. Sphere Medical used Advanced Spend Management to address these challenges.
Advanced implemented an electronic purchasing and approval workflow for Sphere Medical, giving users full visibility of orders and removing the need for written signatures. The solution also enabled 24/7 online access, faster implementation, and integration with Sage for efficient data transfer. As a result, ordering is now estimated to be 50% faster, with improved compliance, better control over suppliers and authorisations, and a full electronic audit trail.
