Letter from CEO

I have a long background in procurement myself as I was involved in sourcing and supply chain analysis at the global industrial group ABB.  Started off as a procurement specialist and traveled around Europe meeting different suppliers and validating new potential ones.
Later on, I worked on procurement centralization projects and helped to demonstrate to the C-level how procurement affects the bottom-line.

Why Procurement feels like a bottleneck?

After leaving ABB, I did some consulting and during one project in China for a Tier 1 automotive company with my future co-founder Marius Arras, we started discussing how we could make the procurement process more efficient and enjoyable. In his 15 years of building different companies and IT products, Marius had always been using the latest tools for managing his work. Most companies in procurement, however, are still using email and Excel sheets. We soon realized that the same way that sales executives use CRM, such as Pipedrive, software companies use Jira and Slack, procurement people need a tool of their own that brings order, simplicity and joy to the everyday work and collaboration. That is how ProcurementFlow was born.

Bringing Love back to Procurement

‍Most of the true value of Procurement Managers is wasted as they are buried in the mess inside their mailbox. With ProcurementFlow, they can quickly organize and visualize their daily work and collaboration. Every step of their work is now digitized and made simple. Only then can they start seeing the big picture and find ways for creating more business value for the company. Moreover, they now have the freedom to work remotely if needed.
