The problem
ICRISAT is a global agricultural research organisation. Procurement lived in spreadsheets and email, with multi-layer approvals, no tracking, and no notifications.
Nobody could see where a request stood, how vendors were performing or where money was going, and manual entry kept introducing errors.
The brief
One tool for requisitions, purchases, vendors and approvals. Centralise the work, make approvals seamless, and give decision-makers insight they can act on. It had to be robust, scalable and built around ICRISAT’s own workflows.
Impact
- Faster: centralised workflows cut approval times by 40%
- Visible: real-time dashboards for spend trends and vendor performance
- Accurate: automation removed manual errors
- Cheaper: analytics surfaced savings that cut procurement costs by 15%
- Connected: stakeholders coordinate in one place, with fewer delays
