Case Study: Siemens achieves >90% data quality and improved procurement categorization with Creactives

Siemens - Customer Case Study

Siemens faced a complex procurement challenge due to inaccurate material group categorization across its numerous global divisions and SAP systems. This led to errors in free-text and catalog orders, inefficient purchasing processes, and unreliable reporting. Siemens partnered with Creactives to address these significant data quality issues in both their direct and indirect spend.

Creactives implemented a solution that provided both unattended and attended categorization for purchase requisitions. This resulted in certified data accuracy of over 90% worldwide, supported a major migration to a new procurement platform, and enabled a 60% increase in new supplier categorization. The automation was successfully embedded directly into Siemens' SAP systems, streamlining processes for multiple divisions.
