Thanks to the easy integration into our system landscape, the implementation of simple system at SIG was very fast. The exceptionally broad range of vendors convinces both our procurement team and our users. The interplay of simple system with our ERP system has allowed us to automate almost 70 percent of our operational C-parts procurement.
