Challenges

Complex Service Needs: Complex services such as maintenance, operations, capital projects, and shutdowns from suppliers were not managed well.
Application Overload: Complex IT landscape with 300 fragmented applications, creating inefficiency, high costs and unnecessary work.
Lack of Integration: Before Ivalua, there was no integration with other systems such as DocuSign, which limited the efficiency and effectiveness of contract management and workflow processes.

Benefits

Enhanced Flexibility and Configurability: Ivalua’s flexible Source-to-Contract solution adapts to various needs beyond traditional procurement, including the management of shipper services and confidential legal agreements.
Improved Workflow and Integration: The workflow capabilities and integration with DocuSign improve the efficiency of contract management processes.
Support for Indigenous Community Engagement: Ivalua’s seamless integration with ERP systems helps in classifying and identifying indigenous suppliers by community and geographic location.
