Freight Costs Savings
Time Savings in Procurement
Audit Compliance
Increase in Vendor Base
Hector Beverages' existing vendors were restricted to known routes, leaving their potential on other lanes untapped resulting in underutilized vendor capacity and inefficient lane planning.
Floating RFPs, negotiating rates, and finalizing contracts required extensive manual coordination, leading to delays in procurement decisions and increased administrative burden.
Without real-time bidding, Hector Beverages lacked visibility into competitive market freight rates, often resulting in higher logistics costs.
Manual processes lacked audit trails, making compliance tracking and policy adherence difficult.
They relied heavily on a small set of transporters, limiting competition, flexibility and their ability to secure better rates and service quality.
SuperProcure mapped current transporters to additional lanes, maximizing their capacity and improving network efficiency, reducing dependency on a limited set of transporters & optimized lane allocation.
SuperProcure automated the RFP process, enabling seamless floating of requests and ensuring wider participation from transporters. This accelerated rate discovery and improved procurement efficiency.
Live bidding through the SP platform allowed transporters to bid competitively in real-time, ensuring transparent rate benchmarking, no hidden markups, and cost-effective contracts for the company.
SuperProcure digitized the entire procurement process, ensuring complete transparency, automated audit trails, and adherence to procurement policies. This improved accountability & made vendor selection more structured and compliant.
SuperProcure onboarded new transporters, increasing competition and reducing dependency on a limited vendor pool. This broader vendor base enabled better pricing negotiations & improved service reliability.
