ServiceNow recognized for its comprehensive Source-to-Pay Operations solution that enhances procurement efficiency and effectiveness

ServiceNow (NYSE: NOW), the AI platform for business transformation, has been named a Leader in the first ever IDC MarketScape: Worldwide SaaS and Cloud-enabled Spend Orchestration 2024 Vendor Assessment. ServiceNow attributes this recognition to its Source-to-Pay Operations solution, which delivers easy to follow, highly automated processes for procurement, supplier management, and accounts payable, bringing teams together and helping reduce cycle times and costs.

According to the report, “ServiceNow's Source-to-Pay Operations is a comprehensive solution designed to automate and streamline the source-to-pay process, thereby enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of procurement activities. By automating routine tasks and providing a unified platform for procurement, supplier management, and employee requisition activities, ServiceNow enables procurement, supplier, and AP specialists to focus on strategic priorities and high-value tasks, improving overall operational agility and efficiency.”

“Few teams have faced more pressure in recent years to overhaul manual processes than those supporting procurement, supplier management, and accounts payable. ServiceNow is meeting these teams where they are with our Source-to-Pay Operations solution, which offers a streamlined, fully automated system with an unmatched user experience, all on a single platform,” said Kirsten Loegering, VP of product management, Finance and Supply Chain Workflows, at ServiceNow. “By providing a single layer that connects processes, underlying systems of record, and data sources, we remove complexity and friction for employees, as well as enable them to focus on more critical work.”

Built on the company’s AI platform for business transformation, ServiceNow improves the entire procurement process through its Finance and Supply Chain Workflows, including Source-to-Pay Operations. This solution works well with existing ERP and procurement technologies, helping ensure companies realize business value and results, fast, with a centralized employee portal for procurement requests, virtual agent technology, shopping hub of preferred suppliers, and real-time analytics. Its advanced features boost procurement productivity and simplify workflows across existing systems, which help minimize errors and delays. Additionally, it fosters better collaboration with suppliers by integrating them directly into the process and offering connected, interactive experiences.

Most recently, as part of the Now Platform Xanadu release, ServiceNow brought its GenAI experience, Now Assist, to Finance and Supply Chain Workflows, starting with Sourcing and Procurement Operations. Now Assist for Sourcing and Procurement Operations further simplifies the procurement intake process with a conversational experience that guides requesters to find what they need, all while helping ensure process compliance and an overall improvement in spend under management.
