Problem Statement

Businesses Want Growth

Historically, businesses procured a limited number of tools or licenses. However, in 2024, the average business was using over 130 specialized SaaS tools to meet specific needs. Identifying, evaluating, onboarding & managing these diverse tools has become increasingly complex, necessitating improved procurement methods beyond traditional approaches.

Vender Overheads - Managing multiple vendor onboarding, purchase orders, invoices, payments, support etc.

Credit Card Payments - Digital procurement may require a credit card, leading to leakages & loss of control over expenses.

Evaluating Alternatives - Limited knowledge and time to identify, evaluate, and negotiate with competing providers.

Low Bargaining Power - Difficult to negotiate any discounts on small-volume purchases.

Forex Transactions - Challenges like withholding tax (TDS) issues, government reporting, banking overheads, conversion charges, etc., in case the Provider does not support local billing.

Direct Procurement Challenges

Multiple Partner Overheads - Every Provider brings their partners, losing benefit like no new vendor onboarding, a single invoice, streamlined support, and better negotiation power.

Partner Bias - Partners promote the Provider offering them better margins rather than being an unbiased advisor.

Inconsistent Quotes - Each Partner submits a different quote for the same product, creating distrust and a lack of transparency.

Lengthy Negotiation Cycles - Customers must negotiate each transaction with the Partner, Distributor, and Provider.

Low Bargaining Power - Difficult to negotiate any discounts on small-volume purchases.
