Rethinking retail purchasing: smart, strategic, efficient

In many retail companies, purchasing is still predominantly handled manually and with a high degree of personal knowledge – often based on Excel spreadsheets. This is not least due to the fact that common digital tendering solutions are rarely tailored to the specific requirements of retail.

 

With smartTender, we're changing that.

Our platform was specifically developed for the retail industry and brings structure, transparency, and efficiency to the entire tendering process. It supports you in strategically developing your procurement – ​​moving away from day-to-day business and toward sustainable value creation.

smartTender offers you:

  • Legally compliant and standardized procurement processes
  • Centralized supplier management with complete oversight
  • Consistent and transparent handling of all tenders and offers
  • Audit-compliant logging and centrally accessible data for improved decision-making

The result:
Operational purchasing is noticeably relieved, as responsibilities are clearly separated and processes are efficiently managed. At the same time, smartTender creates the basis for better procurement results – through professional negotiations and a holistic view of costs.
