At the same time, the functionality and flexibility of Jaggaer solutions and its experience in the manufacturing and automotive sectors have made it the ideal technological partner.

The digitalisation of procurement plays an increasingly central role in the operations of large companies. Are the procurement teams themselves a confirm process cost savings of more than 73% and 67% faster execution. Goals achieved when they can make use of the technology they need.
