GEP SMART Likes & Dislikes

Like

GEP SMART lets me view detailed purchasing reports by business sectors and supplier organizations to find saving chances and ways to make our system work better. We found many ways to save money through precise data review.

Like

GEP SMART helps me see where to find cost savings through its detailed category spending reports. Automated sourcing processes simplify how we pick vendors and handle contracts with less work for people.

Like

The entire procurement process receives seamless management through GEP SMART which combines supplier acquisition with contractual settlements followed by purchase tracking. Our team experiences enhanced partnership and better category spend transparency because of this single centralized platform.

Dislike

My team struggles to completely transfer procurement data into GEP SMART resulting in uncomplete data analysis that blocks us from seeing our total spending picture. This produces unreliable information that companies cannot put into practical use.

Dislike

My main problem arises from differences in data as I try to combine data from different sources. Difficulty in making good team decisions becomes a side effect of this problem.

Dislike

The creation of detailed spending reports along with tracking targeted KPIs demands significant effort on our end. The system's inability to provide pre-made reports coupled with constrained capability to customize data results in poor analytical capabilities.
