Precoro
We were having major issues with our purchasing process at my engineering firm. People would order parts without telling anyone, then we'd discover we already had them sitting in storage. Sometimes we'd have three different people order the same expensive components because nobody knew what was already on order. Our accounting department was constantly frustrated by surprise invoices. After a particularly bad quarter where we wasted thousands on duplicate orders and rush fees, our operations manager started looking for solutions. We tried several options but ended up going with precoro for our purchasing system. The main benefit has been transparency - everyone can see what's been ordered and what's in progress. The approval workflows are customizable, so routine orders go through quickly while expensive items get proper review
