Case Study: VEMAG Maschinenbau achieves €430,000 savings in 8 months with tacto

157,000 € Cost savings through transparency for B and C parts, conclusion of quantity contracts & batch size changes

VEMAG Maschinenbau, a leading machine manufacturer, sought to transform its procurement from an operational function into a modern, AI-supported control unit. The challenge was to optimize purchasing figures, reduce administrative effort, and leverage savings potential, particularly with hard-to-manage B and C parts. To address this, VEMAG partnered with tacto and its Procurement Intelligence Execution System.

The solution from tacto automatically combined order, price, and invoice data, using learning algorithms to create an intelligent data flow and provide an AI-based early warning system for procurement. This enabled VEMAG to achieve over €430,000 in cost savings within just eight months, including €122,919 from improved negotiations alone. The partnership with tacto provided the transparency and automated workflows needed to proactively identify and realize significant savings.
