Nitor has established world-class benchmarks on the 8-Elements of successful Procurement organizations. Our cross-industry experience and market studies have determined the people, process, and technology aspects that make a company "emerging," "average," or "best-in-class." We work with key business process owners for each of the 8-Elements to define where you are today, where you want to be tomorrow, and the actions that will bridge that gap.
Following an assessment, actually executing the recommendations and transforming the source-to-pay environment is what creates change. Nitor goes on the source-to-pay solution journey with our clients and helps create and build the new people, process, and technology foundation across all 8-Elements.
