Case Study: Global Testing and Certification Agency achieves 3,000+ procurement savings projects and enterprise-wide spend visibility with GEP SMART

Global Testing and Certification Agency Manages 3000-plus Procurement Savings Projects With Smart by GEP

A global testing and certification company headquartered in Europe with more than 2,000 offices and labs, 80,000+ employees and over $5 billion in revenue needed a modern procurement system to replace a legacy platform that offered limited enterprise-wide visibility, poor multilingual and multi-currency support, and fragmented savings tracking. The client’s goals were greater spend and contract visibility, increased spend under management, multilingual sourcing, higher compliance and centralized tracking of savings projects.

The company implemented GEP SMART™, configured across spend analysis, sourcing, contract and savings management and integrated with its ERP for SSO, with go-live and full document migration completed in under three months. The deployment enabled multilingual, multi-currency sourcing and reporting, engaged 2,500 partners across 4,000+ contracts, initiated more than 3,000 savings projects and ran 80+ multilingual sourcing events in the first three months, delivering higher spend visibility, faster user adoption, streamlined contract management and improved compliance.
