Why were we reluctant to deploy a vendor management system?
Not so long back while getting ourselves onboarded with one of our esteemed clients, the process took us close to a month. Reasons where simple, we had to share series of documents and credentials for all our major branches on mail, followed by set of approvals from multiple stake holders of our clients. The portal was seek, but every iteration or addition needed few weeks. It did not end there, if we had to revisit our previous orders the navigation was not easy, followed by multiple email communication. And of course we did not have any dashboard to get a summary of the orders. All this at an exorbitant rate since the platform was from repute. Making it mobile ready was another set of challenge. Since we are quite price sensitive, we never bothered to buy such vendor management system for ourselves. If I have to list the hurdles which were stopping us from getting a vendor management portal were:
- Exorbitant pricing
- Difficulty to deploy and maintain
- Mobile & dashboarding became other set of challenge
- Automating it for AI readiness was a difficult challenge
- Any change in process or system required additional expediture
- Significant time to deploy
How did we address the challenge?
Being a Low Code/No Code systems integrator has an additional advantage. We can leverage it to streamline our process and systems at a very low cost. Today the world of Low/No Code gives us immense power to deploy any process application in very less time and budget. With evolution of low code platform, we can easily develop a VMS solution exactly based on our requirement. Because of its drag & drop feature, it can be completely customized and deployed within a shorter period while increasing the agility and reducing the complexity of the process at the same time. The platforms provide base-level code, scripts, and integrations so we can build or scale VMS app without developing complex infrastructure.
Our experience
- Simple and easy to deploy
- Highly customizable
- Automatically maintained
- Extremely affordable
- Easy to integrate with legacy & modern systems
Can it integrate with main ERP system?
Low code platform has the capability to integrate with any existing ERP solution with the help of APIs. Today most of the major ERP solutions have the provision to integrate with other apps, also they certify low code platform so they can be easily integrated and complement each other. This way with Low code applications, we can not only reduce the workload on existing ERP and but can increase its productivity & efficiency as well.
How do we create a difference?
Traditional method of VMS system demands significant time, effort and money. As a low Code/No Code systems integration with expertise across multiple platforms we are able to provide ready to use VMS solution in days.
Small changes or tweaking in processes can be completed in days. The most important value proposition from us is the valuable time and ability to begin with smallest possible budget.
