138 JAGGAER Testimonials

“One of our levers for getting more in control with our procurement activities across the company is through implementing systems that will help us. So, we have invested in a piece of software called JAGGAER, consisting of two modules. We launched the “Source to contract” module on the 13th of December, so that all of our category managers can operate in our six-step sourcing model, through that tool. The other part is the “E-procurement” tool. That is more or less an eBay platform for all of our employees across our company. Whenever they want to buy anything from a pencil, to a spare part, a piece of machinery, or a marketing event, or whatever they want to buy, then they will actually go into this platform instead of just picking up their phone and doing maverick buying. Getting this tool implemented will be a great, great lever for us to be even more in control around our procurement activities. This will make us even better in securing the suppliers with whom we have contracts because their catalogues are available in the JAGGAER system. So, it’s easy peasy for our colleagues to find whatever they need from the suppliers that are already approved.”

“I need to manage a global network. This only works if we implement the same processes on the same platform, whether it’s in Switzerland, South America or China. This is the only way for me to achieve the transparency we need in a category manager to achieve our target of an annual 3% increase in efficiency in the supply chain."

“JAGGAER is an important part of our vision, which is to transform purchasing from an operationally focused organization to one that is strategically focused.”

“When you have a network like we do— with tens of millions of line items and many prices and contracts changing on a monthly basis—even small reductions in price have resulted in millions in savings. The visibility provided by JAGGAER spend management benefits our members by helping us all track to those changes and by preventing slippage.”

“In order to keep up with all of the events we have, you have to have a tool that’s capable and reliable. The ability to handle all the data in a nice, neat way, and streamline communication to participants. That’s the real power of optimization.”

“Cycle times through JAGGAER are markedly improved over the times with our prior tool, while still handling complexity.”

“With this method we were only able to go in with a couple of predetermined scenarios that can be produced with spreadsheets. If you can’t constrain the data effectively, you’re unable to identify the best supplier for the variety of possible situations you may find yourself in.”

“Every step of our processes—from fielding bids to ensuring contracts - has been brought to a whole new level. We couldn’t do what we do today without JAGGAER.”

"JAGGAER has allowed us to capture the large portion of our spending that was not being managed, including contract compliance and leveraging suppliers. We’re buying the correct items at the correct price from the correct source, under contract.”

“Procurement managers are consistently challenged at the highest levels to extend that success to the greater organization in order to achieve wider strategic initiatives through a data-driven, process-oriented approach.”

“We have had a deep, strategic relationship and we have realized approximately $1.5 billion in savings using JAGGAER.”

“Normalized 75,000+ suppliers, and classified $3 billion of spend (98%) within 12 weeks. Dramatically reduced time required to produce reports and analysis.”

“We’ve been using JAGGAER’s business automation solutions for years, and the Enterprise Reagent Manager adds another critical layer of efficiency and automation. The compounds we develop require near-immediate access to appropriate supplies and materials. ERM facilitates that access.”

“The new punchout integration helped rapidly identify and use multiple new service providers. We often rely on their expertise to connect us with the best CRO for the job. Overall, I highly recommend using Science Exchange to increase the speed and efficiency of our research.”

“As users dig deeper into this goldmine of information, they can build a greater understanding and get fresh insights into what is working well, and what not so well, enabling them to devise remedial strategies and actions based on fact-based insights.”
