Xchanging, a global business processor, has selected Proactis purchase-to-pay to manage indirect procurement worldwide for one of its blue chip clients, a global HR outsourcing company.
The Proactis solution will be used to ensure that all purchases are made through pre-negotiated contracts and best value is achieved. It will also provide visibility of all committed spend at the point of purchase and will enable better management of budgets. The hosted solution will be rolled-out across the entire customer organisation, which is made up of over 20 locations worldwide.
Patricia Dreghorn, head of service delivery at Xchanging, said: “After undertaking a formal evaluation process, we are confident that the Proactis solution meets all of our requirements. Proactis’ impressive track record and strong reputation amongst users was a decisive factor for us.

We have the opportunity to extend the benefits of this system to our other customers as well. At Xchanging, we are constantly looking at innovative means to enhance the value we provide to our customers, so we definitely see potential to work with Proactis on future customer projects too.”
