Maximize upstream efficiency, savings, and business opportunities with Corcentric Source-to-Contract (S2C)
Source-to-contract refers to the numerous processes through which B2B procurement professionals analyze and optimize their operations to generate more value for the organization. By taking a deep dive into strategic sourcing and procurement activities, they can mitigate risks involving suppliers and maximize their spend management. Because so much goes into the upstream sourcing process, it can be extremely challenging to keep tabs on every single aspect. This is where Corcentric’s purpose-built solution comes into play.
Corcentric Source-to-Contract, or S2C, provides the complete spectrum of related upstream procurement processes required to optimize searching and finding just the right products and services your organization needs by choosing the right suppliers. These include analytics, sourcing, supplier management, and contract management. Corcentric S2C starts with a needs analysis of your particular products or services based on historical category spend for assessing savings and compliance opportunities.
