Offer early payment at shipment to all your suppliers and save an additional 1%+ on spend using "cash against data". If you already have an SCF program, keep your existing funders and platform, we can enhance your program without changing any of these.
Meet new ESG regulations, track the credentials of products and services that you source; collect and evidence ESG characteristics at product or SKU level.
