PROCUREMENT PORTAL
GEP is here to help. We can assist in configuring your procurement portal to exactly how you need it. Or you can take charge of tailoring the content and the processes yourself with GEP at your shoulder to support you.
Guided Buying
A tailored help and support system to navigate relevant buying channels and search content across GEP SMART, with questionnaires that intuitively direct users to the right place, a multi-channel access point with quick links to all purchasing portals, and category cards to provide in-depth category insights.
Procurement Repository
An extensive content repository of policy documents, procedures, forms and FAQs to guide users and reduce free-text requisitions. Enables catalog browsing with the right supplier at the right price, drives price and value compliance and optimizes inventory usage while maximizing the use of preferred supplier bases.
Collaboration Hub
Enabling users to meet and interact with their teams, the Collaboration Hub serves as a connection to category managers, support colleagues, operations staff and other stakeholders. It allows users to view preferred suppliers and partners by category or region, and collaborate with suppliers to manage catalog content.
Self-Service Content Management
A highly flexible customization feature that enables users to personalize their procurement portal with documents and processes important to their area of work. Customers can directly manage all the content displayed on their portal, filtering material related to specific categories, sub-functions or resources.

Why GEP SMART
GEP SMART boosts control, compliance and process efficiency, and slashes paperwork, processing errors and costs – all with minimal learning curve disruption. So from order to invoice, your procurement operations will achieve greater efficiencies, gain valuable insights into spending patterns, and save more time and money.
More than just purchase-to-pay automation, whereby purchase requisitions are turned into purchase orders on approval and are sent to a supplier for fulfillment, GEP SMART manages the validation, invoice matching and reconciliation processes necessary for the accounts payable team, leaving only true exceptions to be processed manually.
GEP SMART is a unified procurement platform, so the P2P tools are not some standalone system divorced from the rest of the procurement chain. GEP SMART lets you track your savings from opportunity identification, through sourcing, contracting and on to order processes. The built-in business intelligence gives you the power to oversee the entire source-to-pay cycle, maximizing your realized savings.
