To manage the supply of their indirect purchases, more than six in ten companies (63.2%) primarily use a Procure-to-pay digital solution, according to the latest online survey conducted by Acxias. A specialized platform responds more effectively to the specificities of managing indirect purchasing processes, which are generally diffuse and involve most of the company's employees. TheErp, rather designed for Direct purchases, in connection with the consumption, production and stock forecasting modules, receives only 15.8% of citations. As for suppliers' e-commerce sites and Office tools (Outlook, Excel, etc.), they are only used by one in ten respondents (10.5% of citations), most often in small companies that certainly do not have professional buyers for these categories or have not yet identified the levers of economy and efficiency associated with these solutions.
