University of Bristol drive spend through Advanced’s procurement solution

The University of Bristol needed a procurement solution that would help users find the right goods and services while improving compliance, efficiency, and cost savings, all while keeping full control of purchasing. It chose Advanced’s procurement solution to support a managed, university-wide buying process.

Advanced worked closely with the University of Bristol to ensure a smooth implementation with minimal disruption. Within months, more than 1,500 users were actively purchasing through the system, generating over £5m in annualised spend. The university reported stronger contract compliance, better value purchasing, improved efficiency, and substantial year-on-year cost savings.
