ZIP
from procurement and sourcing teams to end users , as well as cybersecurity , IT , compliance , privacy and finance departments .
Every year , Zip facilitates millions of comments across its customer base , as users collaborate within the platform . “ They ’ re commenting , they ’ re tagging each other ,” Rujul notes . “ The role of procurement is cross-functional more than any other function and that ’ s what makes and elevates intake and procurement orchestration .”
For orchestration to be at its best , Rujul also believes the process starts with an intuitive intake , which Zip calls the front door . This makes it straightforward for any employee in the organisation to begin a purchase request .
“ Without proper input , you can ’ t have the right workflow ,” Rujul explains : “ It should be intuitive , guiding users without requiring policy documentation and only asking relevant questions based on what they ’ re buying .”
Rujul concludes : “ Zip guides you to capture the request correctly and then makes it very clear visually what the actual orchestration process looks like , what the downstream workflow looks like , and where your request sits at any moment in time between all of the cross-functional teams and systems involvedin the process .”
