Fragmented sourcing. Unstructured data. Incomplete recording systems. Inactive contracted KPIs.

What Procurement Professionals Say

"We were in a frustrating situation, and I know it’s a common one in the public sector. Our suppliers weren’t universally compliant and their prices didn’t stack up. Stakeholders within the organisation constantly complained about the service, and procurement staff were demoralised – it felt like we were fighting an uphill battle.

Progora gave us the visibility we needed to improve relationships with internal users and external suppliers. All procurement now goes through the central marketplace, so for end users it feels like online shopping and it’s easy to buy on framework.

We use the real-time dashboards to track KPIs, help meet savings targets and streamline reporting internally and for the NAO. Crucially, we also get market price comparison data, so we can benchmark suppliers and ensure we’re getting value for money.

Progora was easy to implement – it wasn’t a whole new, complex system and there wasn’t any integration as such. It just sits on top of our existing ERP and finance systems, meaning we started getting a return on investment fast."
