JAGGAER has announced that two of its notable clients, TK Elevator and Signify, have been shortlisted for the prestigious World Procurement Awards. TK Elevator is recognised in the category for the JAGGAER Procurement Transformation Award, while Signify is vying for the Procurement Team Award. According to the company, these nominations underscore the transformative impact of JAGGAER’s technology in enhancing procurement processes and fostering supply chain resilience.
The World Procurement Awards are esteemed for celebrating excellence in procurement on a global scale, with a focus on innovation, efficiency, and sustainability. They aim to highlight best practices and forward-thinking strategies that influence the future trajectory of procurement sectors.
TK Elevator’s shortlisting highlights the firm’s significant advancements within its procurement function. The integration of JAGGAER’s solutions has enabled the company to standardise its global procurement processes, a move designed to streamline operations and maximise savings. Oscar Rego, Chief Procurement Officer at TK Elevator, noted that the support from JAGGAER has been pivotal in centralising procurement across various countries, thereby enhancing transparency and reducing complexity.
Conversely, Signify’s nomination reflects its commitment to excellence and collaborative culture within its procurement team. Arnold Chatelain, the Transformation Program Director at Signify, emphasised that their success is a testament to their cohesive teamwork and shared values, which have driven impactful results in procurement efficiency and operational effectiveness.
The significance of these nominations is further underscored by recent developments in the procurement landscape. Many companies are grappling with new regulations, such as Germany’s Supply Chain Act, which necessitates enhanced oversight of supplier management. As reported, TK Elevator’s integration of JAGGAER’s systems aids in compliance with these emerging legal frameworks.
Moreover, broader trends indicate a growing emphasis on technology-driven procurement solutions. JAGGAER recently introduced updates to its platform that include AI-driven features aimed at optimising procurement processes. These enhancements reportedly facilitate better decision-making, integrate carbon emissions metrics into sourcing decisions, and streamline invoice automation, positioning JAGGAER as a frontrunner in the sector.
As the procurement field continues to evolve, the recognition afforded to both TK Elevator and Signify at the World Procurement Awards may set a benchmark for excellence in the industry. The increasing reliance on advanced technologies not only augments efficiency but also promotes a sustainable and responsible procurement approach, which is becoming vital in today’s business environment.
In light of these developments, the joint acknowledgment of JAGGAER’s clients could serve as a model for other organisations aiming to stay competitive and resilient in an unpredictable economic climate. The outcomes of the World Procurement Awards will likely be closely watched by industry peers, given the implications for future procurement strategies.
