Holistic Source-to-Pay Transformation

End-to-End Source-to-Pay Transformation

As every organization has different goals and levels of digital maturity, the transformation that works is one tailored to your specific needs. We support you across the entire journey, from building Source-to-Contract excellence, to streamlining your Purchase-to-Pay processes. We also provide a comprehensive Category Strategy Development through our 15M Category Strategy add-on.

Source-to-Contract Excellence

Source-to-Contract is the strategic core of procurement—where supplier relationships are built, risks are managed, and value is negotiated. Together with Ivalua, we empower this process by unifying supplier data, streamlining sourcing and contracting workflows, and enhancing decision-making with real-time insights.

Supplier Risk & Performance

Digitalization optimizes this first step of Source-to-Contract. By digitalizing Supplier Information Management (SIM) and connecting it to real-time risk and performance data, organizations gain visibility and control over their supplier base. This stage also covers everything you need for a comprehensive supplier approach, from onboarding and information governance to risk evaluation, performance tracking, and collaboration planning.

Through targeted Process Design & Optimization, we help you streamline data flows, define clear governance models, and build resilient supplier relationships from day one.

Sourcing

Ivalua empowers organizations to turn sourcing strategy into actionable outcomes through a unified platform that supports sourcing projects, RFX management, e-auctions, category strategy, program governance, and savings tracking – all in one place.

Our Source-to-Pay Tender Preparation Services complement this by helping procurement teams design competitive, goal-aligned sourcing events. From planning and designing the tender to supplier engagement and bid evaluation, we ensure every sourcing initiative is structured for impact, compliance, and long-term value.

Contract Management

Contracts are more than signatures, they’re strategic assets that must be structured, stored, and activated effectively. With Ivalua, you gain full control over the contract lifecycle, from authoring and negotiation to execution, compliance, and renewal, within a single, integrated platform.

Our Process Design & Optimization services streamline every stage of contract management, ensuring efficiency and alignment with your sourcing and risk strategies. Meanwhile, our Platform Success Services drive adoption, empowering your teams with the workflows, guidance, and best practices needed to maximize the value of every contract.

Purchase-to-Pay Optimization

eProcurement

Bringing procurement into digital realm through eProcurement allows you to automate purchasing operation. This stage ensures that buying activities are compliant, controlled, consistent, and fully traceable with increasing efficiency. From purchase requisitions, budget tracking, to inventory collaboration, our Purchase-to-Pay Optimization services focus on redesigning these workflows to generate cost savings, eliminate bottlenecks, improve data accuracy, and shorten cycle times.

Invoicing

Digitalization also enables organizations to establish financial accuracy in a systematic manner. With tools supporting AP automation, invoice data capture, accruals, automated invoice processing, and eArchiving, organizations can streamline invoice processing while maintaining full financial control.

Payments

Incorporation of digitalized payment methods like purchasing cards, virtual cards, early payment programs, and diverse payment options is crucial to the last step of purchase-to-pay process. It is where efficiency, flexibility, and financial control come together and help organizations optimize cash flow, reduce processing costs, and strengthen supplier relationships.
