"Technology implementation is easier with the right partner. Our vision was to achieve greater value and cost savings from all vendor related spending by managing risk and engaging vendors more proactively over the relationship lifecycle. With PROACTIS we’ve achieved that and more."
"We have actually grown together with Proactis over the years into a more professional ordering and invoicing process. Nevertheless, optimization and assurance of the purchase to pay process requires continuous attention. You have to stay on top of it."
"The 'go shopping' functionality is now so easy to use that we call it the 'Amazon experience'."
"PROACTIS automates our sourcing events from reverse auctions to complex multi-stage negotiations and enables us to realise the best value, not just the best price, from our local supply base by factoring cost, risk, and performance drivers into decision-making. We have achieved a balance between making it easy for users to consistently adhere to the agreed policy and allowing flexibility to handle any complex project or service-user requirements."
"PROACTIS greatly improves the social care experience for staff by simplifying and automating processes which releases social workers from administrative duties to concentrate on service delivery. PROACTIS also allows us to demonstrate greater transparency, visibility and fairness."
"The system offers us complete transparency of information, affording budget holders a realtime view of actual and committed spend to date. Administrative time has been dramatically reduced which means the system has been welcomed by the user community."
"PROACTIS offers much more than a typical software product. It is a combination of innovative software solutions and well-structured services delivered by experienced professionals."
"PROACTIS Group has done an excellent job of understanding our business and configuring the product to meet our complex requirements. It is a wonderfully user-friendly system that has changed the way we work. I would recommend PROACTIS to anyone."
"Before PROACTIS, the supplier qualification and accreditation was too subjective providing little visibility of risks. There was no consistent measurement and evaluation of suppliers."
"Before PROACTIS we were processing 20,000 invoices amongst a team of 8 every month. Today, we are processing 60,000 invoices every month with the same number. We have absorbed the additional growth without any additional resource, whilst improving accuracy and reporting. We are delighted with how the solution has complemented the process and technology initiatives we have implemented."
"We are seeing greater staff satisfaction because they are more in control than they have previously been, greater productivity because we have minimised the amount of time our employees spend processing paper, and critically, because of the control we now have over our spend and invoicing, we have improved financial compliance."
"Our overall aim was to centralise the Accounts Payable process while incorporating best practices. PROACTIS had proven experience in both of these areas, coming forward with proven customer metrics of what could be achieved. The solution and suggested process improvements have helped us to increase Accounts Payable efficiency by 65% and we have reduced Accounts Payable costs by 41%, all in a little under 12 months."
"Perhaps the biggest win for the University, however, has been the ability to give our academics powerful tools for managing budgets and finances without requiring them to be financially aware, and without distracting them from their day jobs."
"EInvoicing is no longer a ‘project’ - it’s business as usual. Processes have been streamlined. We’re making substantial savings each year and lifted a significant workload from Accounts Payable staff and from across the business as a whole."
"PROACTIS has provided us with exactly the framework we needed to gain control and visibility of indirect spend across our 1,500+ locations we’re very happy with the results."
