Along with a savings directive, we had a very important business mandate of maintaining socioeconomic vendor diversity and because of our unclear spend visibility we were unable meet these objectives. We chose Zycus because of their global domain expertise, granular level of visibility their solution provided and their willingness to work with us to help us identify the savings opportunities thus addressing our long and short term business goals.
