Ivalua Strategic Sourcing Alternatives

A great tool to transform an agency (in my experience, advertising) from just a buyer to a data-driven partner. Centralized visibility is the selling point when it comes to real-time dashboards for hardware, media, and production spend (just to name a few). It helps bridge the gap between an agency's creative vision and their finance department's fiscal vision and discipline.

Our overall experience with Cirtuo has been positive, particularly in improving how we approach category strategy. The platform provides a structured and guided and framework that helps standardize planning and decision-making. While there is a learning curve during initial adoption, it delivers strong value for teams focused on strategic procurement rather than day-to-day operational tasks.

Overall, GEP SMART was a useful and organized platform for managing franchise contracts, purchase requests, supplier on boarding, and spend visibility in one place.
