Intesource Advances Its Innovative Managed Service Sourcing Model With Expansion of SaaS Procurement Offering

PHOENIX, AZ--(Marketwired - August 18, 2015) - Intesource, the go-to e-sourcing specialists for grocers, retailers and restaurants, continues to deliver on its commitment to expand its industry-leading managed service e-sourcing offering with SaaS-based procurement technology.

"Our managed service offering is unlike any other in the procurement and sourcing world. While many organizations continue to rely solely on technology, our team of sourcing experts are actively helping customers achieve the results they were promised by procurement vendors, but never able to achieve through technology alone," said Gabe Gabaldon, Chief Technology Officer at Proactis and Intesource. "To help deliver even more bottom-line value, we continue to dedicate resources in developing supplementary tools our customers need, such as contract management, to compliment the work they perform with our team."

Intesource's Contract Management offering is a secure, central repository designed to give procurement professionals a fast and easy way to search and manage key agreements. Unlike other contract management tools in the market, Intesource's offering was built with procurement and sourcing teams in mind to provide improved transparency, increased compliance, better realization of negotiated savings, reduced risk and liability, and undisputable value across the entire organization.

"Our contract solution was built by procurement people for procurement people," said Gabaldon. "Even though it was developed for managing contracts, the solution's flexibility has made it easy for customers to deploy throughout the enterprise to solve non-contract problems. For example, one of our grocery customers tracks important internal programs through Contract Manager, such as employee certifications for first aid and the battery replacement schedule for their Automated External Defibrillators."

Intesource's Contract Management solution delivers powerful functionality that enables the entire organization to maximize financial performance, reduce risk and improve operational efficiency. Key benefits include:

• A searchable and informative user interface that gives procurement a quick and easy view into all contracts and agreements
• Customizable alerts and alert escalation thresholds to ensure no contracts, actions or issues ever fall through the cracks
• The ability to store and manage an unlimited amount of contracts and documents and grant access to as many key personnel as necessary
• Customizable security levels for assigning different access levels to different personnel
