Today you’re expected to always be looking for areas to optimize.
The Oxford Dictionary says that optimization is “the action of making the best or most effective use of a situation or resource”.
Optimization is really the epitome of what procurement is.
As procurement professionals, we’re always looking to make improvements that help you strategically manage spend with increased efficiency and by leveraging suppliers and resources more effectively.
Since optimization and procurement seem to be so closely aligned, it’s only fitting that your procurement technology is geared for the same goals.
In our 21.2 release we’ve rolled out features designed to optimize our platform, but more importantly, to give you the tools you need to drive impactful results.
JAGGAER Adopt and Assist for Procure to Pay
As part of our Digital Mind, we’re rolling out JAGGAER Adopt and Assist in our Procure-to-Pay solutions.
Without proper digital adoption, you won’t achieve a true return on investment. JAGGAER Adopt provides in-application support which drives system education and adoption to help your organization understand how users are utilizing the platform. In short, you’ll receive guidance on how to get the most out of your solutions and insight to help train your people and drive better performance.
Assist is a chatbot designed with you in mind. No more clicking through reports or searching through FAQs. Simply ask, and Assist will handle the rest.
Assist can answer your questions, find data for you and run reports by leveraging natural language processing. This allows a more intuitive way to interact with the JAGGAER solutions you use every day.

Powerful Business Analytics
Data-driven insights are the key to making optimizations that increase value.
But you can’t do much with raw data or static reports. You need the right tool for the job – a powerful and flexible analytics dashboard designed to help you get more out of your data.
Enter your goals, measure performance, track KPIs, and more within a single dashboard to have the visibility needed to make optimizations based on performance data.
JAGGAER has enabled JLL to optimize cross-functional collaboration across global business units and empowered their team to provide feedback and enhancement requests to our product development team.
JAGGAER Advise
Another solution within our new Digital Mind is JAGGAER Advise, a powerful recommendation engine built on customer-based rules and scenarios to reduce complexity and guide you to the best possible outcome.
Over time the solution will learn, refining the decision process to enable more precise and dynamic recommendations in the future.
Not only will this bring a huge boost to productivity and efficiency but allows you to make data-driven decisions and process enhancements over time providing more and more value.
Machine learning capabilities will continue to be introduced to JAGGAER Advise, eventually ensuring an intelligent and fully cognitive recommendation engine will act as a strategic advisor in your procurement efforts.
Expanding Risk Management with The riskmethods Solution™
Risk management is at the top of everyone’s priority list with supply chain disruptions popping up when least expected. We’re expanding our partnership with The riskmethods Solution to help you recognize risks early to be more proactive before any damage can occur.
Adding The riskmethods Solution to JAGGAER provides seamless integration of risk data into the procurement process. Risk data can be used for the Supplier Scorecard, supplier selection and qualification, and optimization of supplier and category strategy.
Enhance Procurement initiatives with Supply Chain Risk Management to secure revenue and safeguard a positive corporate image.
