Volkswagen

Volkswagen Global Shared Procurement System is a custom platform built to centralize procurement across outsourced vendors. Designed for high availability and automation, it supports contract management, payments, and reporting while enabling imports of older procurement details, reports, and analyses. The system improves visibility, consistency, and scalability across global operations.

Vendor Management

Centralize vendor contracts, payments, and procurement steps for better oversight across multiple outsourced partners.

Cost Visibility

Enable clear reporting on total procurement costs, progress, and stakeholder analysis across the system.

Cash Tracking

Improve cash flow tracking and reporting to support procurement funding decisions and accountability.

Scalable Availability

Build a high availability system that scales globally and integrates services with minimal effort.

Volkswagen’s procurement team evaluated progress and funding manually in Excel, which required time and careful coordination. We proposed an automated procurement tool to streamline workflows, reduce human error, and centralize procurement activity, creating a system designed for accuracy, reliability, and efficient evaluation across stakeholders.

We designed the platform to retrieve network information automatically from CRAMER and support distribution, scaling, and backup. Built on REST APIs, the system remains UI independent and horizontally scalable, allowing integrations with existing standards. We also provided training and support so teams could adopt the solution quickly.
