From spend to stock: procurement that runs on insight.
NexProcure helps South African businesses buy better, receive accurately and see their spend clearly. We cover the full source-to-pay cycle, and we learn your process first, then automate it.
Does any of this sound familiar?
Most of the businesses we work with recognise at least two of these.
Fragmented procurement
Business units buy separately, with no single thread and no leverage.
No spend visibility
Spend isn't classified, so savings opportunities stay hidden.
Unclear strategy
There's no category or group strategy, especially for large technology spend.
Weak controls and compliance
Inconsistent vendor onboarding, poor master data, unclear delegation of authority and limited PO usage.
Stock you can't trust
Inaccurate receiving leads to shortages, ERP mismatches and cash tied up in the wrong inventory.
Thin internal resources
Too few procurement people to run sourcing, contracts and supplier management properly.
Three practices, one team.
Strategy, operations and inventory from one team, delivered as a defined project, an outsourced team or fractional supply chain leadership.
Strategic procurement
Know what you spend, who you spend it with, and where the leverage is. Spend analysis, category strategy, sourcing and negotiation.
Strategic procurementOperational procurement
Clean master data, clear controls and a purchase-to-pay process that gets followed. Requisition-to-PO, vendor onboarding and P2P.
Operational procurementInventory & supply chain
Stock you can trust, starting at the receiving dock. Receiving, stock accuracy, replenishment and MRO spares.
Inventory & supply chainEvery step from spend analysis to payment.
One team across the whole cycle, so nothing falls between strategy and operations.

Time to classify one batch of spend.
