SRM-Supplier Relationship Management
The EAG along with the University of Kentucky Purchasing Department have now implemented the SAP SRM (Supplier Relationship Management) system. The SRM application automates, simplifies, and accelerates procure-to-pay processes for goods and services. Users are able to punch out to vendor managed catalogs and shop on line directly from the application. Internally managed contracts can be searched in SRM to ensure accurate contract pricing is enforced.
