Case Study: US-based Multinational Confectionary, Food & Beverage Company achieves seamless procurement transformation with Zycus

Global Food & Beverage Giant Ropes in Zycus for Seamless Procurement Transformation

US-based Multinational Confectionary, Food & Beverage Company, a $30B global manufacturer with ~107,000 employees, faced laborious, paper-based procurement and stretched sourcing cycles, an obsolete IBM Emptoris contract solution, and exposure to compliance, legal and data‑security risks. To standardize multi‑language global contract management, consolidate a complex supplier base and build a procurement knowledge hub, the company partnered with Zycus, deploying Contract Management, eSourcing, Supplier Performance Management and Project Management modules.

Zycus implemented an integrated Source‑to‑Pay footprint—Contract Management, eSourcing, Supplier Performance Management and Project Management—on a single platform, onboarding 45,086 suppliers, uploading 31,880 contracts and enabling 850+ eSourcing and 1,195+ contract users. The Zycus solution reduced manual work, accelerated sourcing cycles, eliminated compliance/security risks, delivered quantifiable supplier performance analytics and improved project visibility and auditability, streamlining procurement and protecting data.
