Are you one of the businesses out there who find themselves asking the question, ‘Why do we need a purchase order management (POM) system‘? If this is the case, you might think your business is functioning well using the outdated manual processes it has always used? Perhaps you haven’t yet considered why you might require such a system at all, nor the benefits you’ll achieve as a result of doing so?

Imagine a world where you can have full visibility into which vendors consistently deliver products on time, at the agreed price, and without errors? Purchase order management gives you this ability! By using vast quantities of data to create an audit trail, you gain valuable insights into your best and worst-performing vendors so you can award contracts accordingly and with the intelligence to give you the upper hand.

Improve Inventory Management

Gravity provides you with inventory transparency from ex-factory through to distribution centers and gives you access to both pending and approved requisitions and purchase orders. It enables users to make more accurate and informed recommendations for reordering inventory items.

Better Budgeting And Spend Management

Those businesses that have a purchase order management system in place have more reliable visibility over all their processes and can manage their overall spend and manage cash flow much more efficiently as a result. While a purchase order management system doesn’t establish a budget, it certainly helps businesses to stick to their budget. In a world where numerous challenges and disruptions lurk around every corner, ready to strike without warning, companies must utilize a platform like Gravity to enable them to remain prudent in their operations.
