Procurement management is the process of acquiring all the goods your company needs. Large-scale purchasing decisions are critical for both businesses and vendors, especially since a business’ resource planning and bottom line depend on it. A streamlined and automated procurement management process helps businesses to better prepare and process demand, ensuring a data-driven decision-making approach that isn’t hindered by paper stacks and repetitive, time-intensive tasks.

One of the major concerns for businesses is that procurement teams spend most of their time on administrative tasks, leaving far less time to focus on purchasing goods and services that help the organization reach its goals. Ineffective processes mean teams spend the majority of their time manually filling out purchase orders (POs), creating requests for quotes (RFQs) and requests for proposals (RFPs), while also following up on receipts and invoices with various stakeholders. A lack of resources and time means procurement teams are unable to do the tasks that will boost the organization’s bottom line, like investing in goods and services at a competitive cost to quality ratio. Down the line, this hinders the overall functioning of the company.

Procurement requisitions from within the company can easily become lost in email chains or paper printouts that float from desk to desk. FireStart remedies this problem with built-in request forms within the larger procurement workflow. Anyone can easily request resources needed, with a faster approval process, and up-to-date digital record keeping. Store all past requests automatically in the central repository, for full transparency to stay compliant and avoid fraud.

Create procurement documents like purchase orders (POs) in seconds. FireStart helps teams to establish best practice purchase orders with end-to-end procurement automation solutions. With our technology partner, Dox42, it’s easy to create a standardized purchase order template with the drag and drop function. Then, FireStart can autofill the document and send it to the relevant stakeholders all within seconds. Purchase orders can be triggered to generate automatically when a purchase request comes in, streamlining the entire workflow end-to-end.

Boost transparency throughout the entire procurement automation process with smart integrations. FireStart allows you to easily integrate ERP systems like SAP, helping procurement managers to accurately plan resources without needing to stitch together standalone components. Speed up procurement time and ensure consistency and visibility with procurement automation software.

Reduce repetitive task overload within procurement teams by automating administrative tasks. FireStart’s procurement automation solution helps organizations accomplish the unique philosophy of procurement management – to ultimately procure the right items and services at the right price from the right vendor, in order for the organization to thrive.

Learning how to manage the new remote work culture can improve collaboration within the business and help the company sustainably scale.

The purchase-to-pay (P2P) process is the process an organization goes through from the dispatch of an order, up until the settlement of the supplier invoice. It’s important for this process to go off without a hitch in order to retain customers and vendors for the long-term success of the company. Empower employees with workflow automation to ensure that all information is accurate, removing ambiguity, and safeguard against ripple effect problems downstream.

The purchase-to-pay process flow consists of a large number of smaller processes that are crucial for overall organizational success. P2P takes place across departments, involving multiple stakeholders both inside and outside the business, and the exchange of sensitive information. For this reason, the process introduces added complexity, meaning that there is more room for confusion, data loss, and human error.

Requesting goods and services from the company can be an arduous process when done manually. FireStart empowers employees to easily request necessary goods and services while allowing managers to approve requests digitally. Automatically trigger a purchase requisition workflow when a purchase is required, utilize UiPath RPA to automatically fill requisition forms and Dox42 to output forms in a variety of formats like PDF or Excel. Save teams time and streamline procurement processes with end-to-end automation.

The three-way match methodology is used by Accounts Payable (AP) to determine how fully an invoice should be paid. Automating the three-way match process with FireStart allows organizations to safeguard their assets, avoid fraudulent invoices, increasing payment transparency. Instead of manually retrieving invoices and comparing the invoice against the original Purchase Order (PO), the process can be done automatically, pulling all information from various ERP systems like SAP, reducing the finance team's overall time on manual tasks. Business rules can also be added to automatically approve invoices within a certain threshold.

Store all buyer and vendor data in one central repository to speed up invoice approvals. FireStart empower you to process purchase-to-pay requests quickly by conveniently storing all data in one centralized place, making it easier for all stakeholders in the process to locate information, fill invoices, and approve requests.

Process mapping helps teams to visualize their workflow processes in a digital format. Processes can quickly become convoluted in the ideation stage, often skimming over vital details or not incorporating cross-department collaboration. A well-mapped business process helps teams and organizations see where bottlenecks can be avoided, how collaboration can be incorporated easily, and which tasks can be automated instead of done manually. Employees then have a clear picture of responsibilities and approvers and where tasks can be automated, making process cycles quicker and more streamlined.

Streamlining the processes that run within an organization can be a difficult process. Business processes are often not documented, meaning that each process can have unnecessary or even missed steps, taking processes longer to complete. Mapping out a process manually can be equally painstaking, especially when collaboration is needed. As a result, teams are left in the dark and are unaware of how effective their processes are, creating more work hours than necessary and decreasing efficiency.

Process maps must be easy to read and understand in order to make an impact. FireStart utilizes a visual BPMN 2.0 standard with an easy-to-use drag and drop function. Easily create process map diagrams in seconds to clearly see who is responsible, where resources are allocated, and which tasks can be automated.

Work with team members across departments to build cohesive process maps. Use FireStart’s integrated collaboration tools to share feedback in real-time. Integrate feedback instantly to keep process maps updated at all times. Notifications via integrations like Microsoft Teams and Outlook increases process auditability and drives efficiency.

Keep all process maps stored in one centralized location to prevent fragmentation. FireStart utilizes a central repository to store all process maps across departments, processes and workflows, so each process map is always easy to access and backed up. Improve accessibility for all team members and ensure no process data is lost.

Ensure everyone is on the same page when it comes to organizational processes with digital process mapping. FireStart’s easy-to-understand BPMN 2.0 process mapping format ensures that all process nuances are documented and simple to interpret. Teams can then work collaboratively to refine and streamline existing processes in order to reduce cycle times and increase output.

Digitizing process mapping ensures that processes are well planned out, include all the necessary steps, and are assigned to the corresponding team members. Unlike manual process mapping, where paper can be lost, process maps in FireStart are backed up in the central repository, ensuring no data is lost. Team members are now aware of their role within a broader process, giving a big-picture view, boosting team motivation, and simplifying often complex and multifaceted processes. With more transparency and better visibility, teams can now collaborate and work more in sync with one another, boosting organizational productivity and enhancing the bottom line.

Document automation is the process of automatically creating and sending documents to assist an organization in speeding up its processes. Employees often spend hours designing a document template, copying and pasting data from various sources, and then attaching the documents manually to send to stakeholders via email. This lengthy process slows process cycle times unnecessarily, while also increasing the risk of human error. Document automation software helps teams to easily create documents with smart auto-filled data, and send documents in seconds, speeding up process cycle times and eliminating the risk of mistakes.

Creating and transferring documents across teams and organizations can become a convoluted process. Between signing contracts and order fulfillments, it’s easy for errors to occur and multiple variations of the same documents to circulate, putting the business at risk. Whatsmore, creating an easy-to-read document template by itself can take too long, taking up valuable employee hours. When businesses are creating multiple reports, presentations, or several spreadsheets, it’s important that only one version is circulating through different stakeholders, and that all documents are stored in one centralized location.

Instantly generate any type of document from PDFs to Excel spreadsheets and PowerPoint presentations.

Settling a claim request is just one part of the puzzle, the entire process end-to-end encompasses many different stakeholders to verify and approve the request. The insurance claims process is still a manual one, involving long paper trails and many manual tasks that can put great amounts of stress on employees. Workflow automation can help maintain great customers relationships to help boost company image, and reduce the number of manual tasks required in the claims process.

Insurance processes are variable, relying on certain criteria to be met before settling a claim. Long approval loops, unstructured processes, and integrations that are not managed centrally create an environment of process uncertainty in the insurance industry. Health insurance claims can also be a point of contention, where customers are eagerly awaiting approval of medical claims. Claims data can come in the form of handwritten notes, emails, document attachments, phone calls, and instant messages, making the data entry far more manual, taking more time. Meeting stringent deadlines for legal and compliance reasons is of the utmost importance, helping insurance companies to avoid costly litigation.

Processing all manner of documents, both digital and analog, with digital assistance can dramatically cut down claims processing cycles. FireStart together with our technology partner Dox42, scans documents to retrieve and input data so humans don’t have to. Automatically trigger Dox42 to begin scanning, while backing up and storing documents within FireStart’s centralized repository for full transparency.

Successfully offboarding employees is important for both the ex-employee and the organization. When employees decide to move onto new prospects, it can be difficult to tie up the loose ends, leading to multiple issues for the company. Offboarding is often left to the last minute, or not implemented, leading to knowledge transfer gaps, compromised security, or a negative last impression. Employee offboarding automation enables companies a seamless and streamlined exit for employees, helping to reduce security and compliance risks and end on a positive note.

The employee offboarding process is often overlooked. An employee offboarding workflow can quickly become disjointed, especially when multiple departments need to perform actions within a certain time frame for legal and compliance reasons. Digital vandalism, knowledge theft, and negative brand image are all avoidable risks that come from a fractured offboarding process.

The importance of contract management spans across departments within organizations. From signing customers to invoicing clients, contract management is essential for the smooth running of the business, remaining compliant, and making more informed purchasing decisions. With automation, teams can work collaboratively across departments, meaning error-free contract creation and quick lead times.

Creating, reviewing, negotiating, and signing contracts is a time-consuming and costly endeavor. In many organizations, contracts are still reviewed manually, which takes much-needed resources from the legal department. Even when contracts are managed externally, this can incur extra costs and prolong the cycle time. Managing contracts through so many different hands can also create inaccuracies, leading to more risk in the business process.

Contract creation can be a lengthy process. From template design to filling in customer data, hours can be spent creating contracts for important deals. FireStart enables your teams to generate contracts automatically with our technology partner, Dox 42. Use workflow automation to easily design contract templates, automatically fill client data, and send the contract to client inboxes instantly.

Businesses are responsible for ensuring that employees have the supplies they need to complete their daily tasks and enhance workflows. Many order processes are still manual, meaning they are generally disorganized and time-consuming. Employees often submit their order requests via website links or paperwork, leading to delayed response times, errors, and decreased efficiency. Improve order request fulfillment times and enable businesses to focus on more important tasks.

A major concern for businesses is that manual requisition processes require managers to individually review each order request that is submitted. Additionally, all order data submitted by the employee is usually copied and pasted multiple times, leading to errors. The process then becomes dependent on people, which creates disorganization, delayed responses, and increased errors.

Send order forms automatically via email directly from your workflow. FireStart Cloud allows your teams to stay up to date with order requests while saving time with defined approval loops. Employees can fill out the order requests form and send the request to the responsible approver via an automatic email. The approver is notified about the order with all necessary data, including who made the order, the item, and the cost. Ensure all requisition requests are sent on time without waiting on long approval loops.

Stay on top of multiple order requests with workflow tracking. Visually see the status of each order request in the workflow overview and empower managers to identify bottlenecks when they arise. Send reminder notifications via automatic emails to ensure each order is approved within a set timeframe. FireStart Cloud makes it possible to stay on track with order approvals, saving time for both employees and managers.

Create conditions within processes based on business rules. FireStart Cloud allows managers to streamline requests according to defined rules like price. Set up the requisition process to automatically accept orders within a certain price threshold and send orders over that threshold directly for manual approval. FireStart Cloud empowers you to create scalable processes, saving managers time on approval workflows.

Save time, eliminate errors, and improve efficiency by automating order forms processes. FireStart Cloud helps businesses manage order requests quickly and without error, so all employees can focus on more critical tasks.
