Case Study: Technical America achieves 25% purchasing cost savings and faster purchase-to-pay cycles with Tradogram

Implementing a System for Procurement in Engineering

Technical America, a California-based manufacturer of refrigeration and gas compression packages, faced a manual, paper-based procurement process with no ERP, causing tracking, approval, and accounting bottlenecks. Seeking better documentation, communication, and faster workflows across departments, Technical America evaluated and chose Tradogram’s procurement system to digitize purchasing, sourcing, and approvals.

Tradogram implemented an electronic procurement solution with digital requisitions, automated document linking, role-based permissions, and QuickBooks integration, replacing paper forms and manual audits. As a result, Tradogram helped reduce purchase order processing time from 2–8 hours to under 2 hours, enabled automated AP sync and spend reporting, supported about 350 POs/month, and delivered roughly 25% in purchasing cost savings along with a much faster purchase-to-pay cycle.
