Manage Multiple Paying Organizations
If your organization purchases or acts as an agent on behalf of other organizations, this is a game changer. Current SCM was designed with the flexibility to include multiple paying organizations.
- Each organization can have its own segregated team, cost structure, payment terms, contract templates, document numbering rules, business rules, workflows, catalog(s), approved vendors, inventory, reports and much more, all within a single instance.
- Orders can be issued with your clients’ information and logo, or with your organizations’ information and logo.
- If there is more than one paying organization, Orders can be issued from the joint venture to share the cost.
Two-Level Role Based Access Control
Users must be added to Teams. Each User can be added to multiple Teams. Each User can be assigned one or multiple Roles per Team, including different Roles and permissions per Team. Each User can also be assigned one or multiple custom permissions at the Team level.
Team members must be added to specific Projects to access information related to those Projects. Each Team member can be added to multiple Projects. Each Team member can be assigned one or multiple Roles per Project, including different Roles and permissions per Project. Each Team member can also be assigned one or multiple custom permissions at the Project level.
Guide Purchasing of Technical Items with Centralized Procurement Catalog Management
When purchasing highly technical goods and services, it is in an organization’s best interest to put guidelines or controls in place. Current SCM’s highly flexible procurement catalog toolset provides several options to help guide or control your purchasing.
- An example to help guide purchasing would be to create a structured catalog complete with well-defined descriptions, precise measurements & attributes, and detailed metadata to provide Buyers with the information they need to make the right purchase.
- An example to help control purchasing would be to create a business rule to limit purchasing only to Catalog Items that have been approved for use.
Integrated Vendor Document Requirements
With Vendor Document Requirements uniquely integrated into the Order, Current SCM streamlines the creation, standardization, communication, tracking, and expediting of vendor documents.
- Vendor Document Requirements: Define specific vendor document requirements, including the document type, authentication requirements, submission format, and dynamic due date (e.g., document required ten days before shipment). Define vendor document requirements at the Order or Order item level.
- Order Document Export: Current SCM generates a complete Order document export, including paying organization branded Order, commercial terms, BOM (Bill of Materials), contractual terms, specs and standards, and vendor document requirements.
Integrated Materials Management
With Materials Management uniquely integrated into the Order, Current SCM provides a seamless platform to purchase and manage your materials. Current SCM provides complete and flexible workflow support to efficiently manage material through planning, purchasing, allocating, tracking, expediting, releasing, inspecting, and receiving.
Leverage real-time inventory reporting by project, business, or location to ensure you are optimizing inventory and purchasing only what you require. And when procurement is required, leverage powerful line-level Order status updates to monitor delivery schedules, manage key milestones, and proactively identify any material delays or shortages.
Whether your fulfillment strategy is to procure, draw from existing inventory, or a mixture of both, Current SCM can help.
