Case Study: Group Purchasing Organization achieves master supply‑chain control and a single, consistent view of suppliers with the Profisee Platform

Group Purchasing Organization - Customer Case Study

The Group Purchasing Organization, which provides spend and clinical resource management technology and services for healthcare procurement, faced a fractured IT landscape after growth through acquisitions. Needing to replace a homegrown procurement application and establish corporate-wide master data management, the organization sought a single platform to integrate supplier and item data, improve matching at high volumes, and accelerate time-to-value — ultimately selecting Microsoft Master Data Services combined with the Profisee Platform.

Profisee migrated the company’s supplier masters and match groups into the Profisee Platform, uncovering previously undetected bad matches among more than one million supplier records and consolidating the dataset to about 120,000 masters, while handling incoming volumes of roughly eight million supplier records per month. The Profisee solution delivered full visibility and control over matching, reduced manual processes and redundancies, improved data quality and reliability, enabled corporate governance and real-time supplier views, and fostered an ongoing strategic partnership between the Group Purchasing Organization and Profisee.
