A QAD Case Study
AVL List GmbH, a Graz, Austria-based company in the automotive development, simulation, and testing industry, works with thousands of suppliers and needed a better way to manage supplier data, purchasing decisions, and evolving ESG and compliance requirements. The complexity of gathering accurate external ESG information and keeping supplier information current made its purchasing and sourcing processes increasingly time-consuming, so AVL turned to QAD SRM.
AVL implemented QAD SRM from QAD to unify supplier management, improve sourcing and collaboration, and support ESG data collection through integrations such as EcoVadis. By streamlining its RFQ process and cutting the number of supplier fields by an average of 45%, AVL made supplier engagement more efficient while strengthening risk mitigation and compliance efforts. AVL says it has used QAD SRM for 13 years and continues to rely on it for flexibility and scalability.
