Case Study: Bioderma achieves a digital, automated global procurement hub with SAP Ariba

Bioderma Improving Global Supply Chain by Building Digital Hub for Procurement

Bioderma is a French medical skincare company with 23 subsidiaries and a presence in over 100 countries. Facing rising market pressure, the company needed a more responsive, flexible global supply chain and an international system to manage worldwide vendors, integrate procurement data, automate sourcing, contracts and purchasing, improve compliance, and enable strategic vendor and cost management.

Bioderma implemented a digital procurement hub using SAP Ariba, SAP Business Network and SAP Services and Support, going live in three months with supported training and knowledge transfer. The platform automated end-to-end procurement, integrated with ERP, centralized vendor information and performance management, and increased visibility, compliance and operational efficiency—achieving 100% all‑category procurement coverage, streamlined processes for CNY 250 million in annual spend, and stronger, sustained revenue competitiveness.
