Story
Inside voestalpine, source to pay used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in materials groups working out of Austria. Procurement and AP needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
voestalpine uses Sage HR from Sage as the working layer for procurement and payables. Sage provides accounting, ERP, and HR software used by small and midsize businesses to run finance and operations. The practical change is simple: source to pay has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What voestalpine gets from Sage is a durable place to run source to pay and a way for procurement and AP to see the same procurement and payables at the same time.
