A proven partnership for more efficient, collaborative and innovative supply chain management, supporting one of the world’s largest independent automotive suppliers.
Milan, 4 May 2022 – JAGGAER is supporting Marelli on its journey of digitalization and transformation of its purchasing processes and supply chain management. As of 2021, there are more than 8,000 Marelli users who are using the JAGGAER ONE eProcurement platform, in 22 countries around the world, in 11 different languages.
The company chose the JAGGAER ONE solution after a long selection process, with the major suppliers of such platforms on the market competing for the business.
With approximately 54,000 employees and 170 plants and R&D centers around the world, Marelli is one of the world’s largest independent automotive suppliers. It supplies the most important brands and players in the sector with a wide range of innovative and high-quality technologies. The company has always invested in the adoption of the most advanced technologies aimed at making its processes more efficient. This includes the management of supplier relationships, which are considered a strategic factor in improving the company’s productivity, governance and risk management. In fact, since manufacturing excellence is one of the company’s basic principles, the need to maintain an extremely qualified panel of suppliers is unavoidable.
“For a company like ours, dispersed around the globe and recognized for its high levels of service, it is essential to ensure a standardization of purchased goods and a rationalization of the panel of suppliers, also to ensure quality, significant savings and more efficient and improved process management in terms of governance and supply risk management,” said Alessandro Verrua, Project Manager for the implementation and development of eProcurement in Marelli. “JAGGAER has proven to be the ideal partner to accompany us on this procurement innovation journey, which is especially focused on indirect procurement and services. The full and extensive use of the platform’s modules worldwide, from electronic catalogs to eRFX and vendor management, is made even easier today thanks to the recently adopted JAGGAER Assist functionality.”
All processes related to operational expenses have been revisited by leveraging the adoption of the JAGGAER ONE source-to-pay suite: through an intelligent software system, the platform enables the management of all purchases and global visibility on suppliers through the ability to integrate with the systems that Marelli has already adopted and the support of powerful analytics, machine learning and AI technologies to develop predictive analysis and facilitate an increasingly autonomous procurement process. The adopted modules –Sourcing, Supplier Management, eCatalogue, Digital Mind-Assist – allow Marelli to identify the most suitable supplier on the basis of the company’s requirements and objectives, together with environmental sustainability criteria, and to guide the users through a modern purchasing experience, choosing between preferred suppliers and purchasing products listed in the catalog, with consequent financial and time savings and increased compliance.
“We are delighted with the trust that Marelli has placed in our experience and technology, which has allowed us to build a long-term partnership,” concluded Emanuele Iseppi, Account Principal at JAGGAER Italy. “The JAGGAER ONE platform has been customized according to the specific needs of the customer and can be further expanded in the future, accompanying the company as it progresses on its digitalization journey, which will include seizing the new opportunities of our recent Autonomous Commerce revolution.”
