The Government is encouraging councils, healthcare trusts, educational facilities and other public bodies to save money by cutting paperwork, reducing errors and paying on time by trading with their suppliers electronically – @UK can make that transfer to e-procurement simple.

@UK is already working with over 100 public sector organisations that are beginning to achieve real cost savings.

@UK can integrate with any financial system you may have including SAPTM, OracleTM, CedarTM, Radius/CivicaTM or SageTM using either the e-procurement module of that system or @UK’s own process-to-pay functionality.

@UK can also now add vendor-neutral coding of all goods and services for comprehensive and immediate analysis across all suppliers. Another step forward to easier and more effective tendering.

For you to succeed with your e-procurement programme you will also need to ensure all the common suppliers that you use across the organisation are available via your system and make that transfer easy for all involved.

@UK works with your suppliers to make their systems ready for e-procurement. It offers a solution for every size of supplier; connecting to the existing website of large suppliers such as Office Depot and RS Components and offering small supplier solutions from just £48 p.a.

E-procurement means that all parties in the supply chain can cut costs and achieve lower prices.

The first stage of your e-procurement implementation, whatever your chosen approach, should be an analysis of the capability of all your existing suppliers. Talk to @UK today about a free, no-obligation “e-meter” exercise. Just ring 0870 486 6009 or click here.
