In Their Own Words: Nipendo
Organizations that work with a large number and often varied types of suppliers find themselves manually processing the different procurement documents that go back and forth between them: RFPs, Purchase Orders, Invoices, Shipping Notifications, and the like. Manual processing is time-consuming, inefficient, and expensive, resulting in errors, fraud and sub-optimal supplier relations.

The Nipendo platform automates the entire, end-to-end process from RFP through Payment, not just individual documents. Each exchange of information between the buyer and its suppliers encapsulates the entire context and history of the interaction such that if an invoice, for example, is received, Nipendo is already aware of the entire order history, including pricing and terms and whether goods have been received and in what condition. Based on this contextual understanding, Nipendo can automatically approve the invoice for payment without manual intervention or hold the invoice while prompting the supplier to correct discrepancies. The intricate level of metadata attached to each document allows buyers to define very specific ways for handing each supplier interaction.
With Nipendo, all trading partners win. Buyers gain greater transparency to delivery schedules and the confidence of meeting production timelines, while Suppliers deliver more efficiently and cost-effectively because they know precisely what their customers expect, resulting in faster payments as well as access to early payment and other financing options.
