Vupadhi:
Simplifying Procurement in the Emerging Global Markets
E-Procurement may seem less
glamorous and in many ways
more difficult to initiate than
online retailing at the present, but the
fact is E-Procurement promises far
greater potential for cost savings and
business improvement than online
retailing or enterprise resource planning
systems and will permanently and
fundamentally reform the way we do
business in future. B2B e-commerce
will essentially restructure the way in
which organizations purchase goods,
resulting in significant process
efficiencies and permanently lower
costs.Thus, the need for the firms in E-
Procurement is and will be
higher.
Vupadhi Techno Services, a
Hyderabad based company
addresses all the compatibility
issues of Browsers, Databases
and Operating systems for E-
Procurement applications. The firm
has achieved significant heights over the
years in E-Procurement and is
continuing to provide the best service
possible to the clients.
