W hen global leader in airport ground services and air cargo handling Swissport needed to implement a new solution to provide a reliable and scalable end to end Source-to-Pay system , a stringent audition process began . Swissport – powered by a 68,000-strong workforce and active at more than 315 stations in 50 countries across five continents – called on KPMG and PwC to help with the selection headache to deliver a unified suite to meet its global needs and support Sales & Operations Planning ( S & OP ).
“ We chose Ivalua because it provides us with a comprehensive suite where we are able to manage all of our needs from supplier selection process and contract management to sourcing and analytics ,” reveals Swissport ’ s CPO Reiner Orth . “ For us it ’ s a tool that won ’ t just enhance our performance but help us look into areas of the business we haven ’ t been able to examine fully before .”
“ We ’ re seeing a huge step forwards here for Swissport with the transparency and traceability of all actions from the purchase requisition to the payment process in one system . It ’ s a timely boost for our company as we prepare to go public with our IPO ”
