Which tool simplifies the procurement of non-sourced goods while maintaining control?

The SAP Ariba Spot Buy Catalog is designed specifically to simplify the procurement of non-sourced goods while providing organizations with the necessary control over the purchasing process. This tool allows users to quickly purchase items that may not have been sourced through traditional procurement methods, such as contracts or negotiated agreements.

By utilizing the Spot Buy Catalog, users can access a wide array of suppliers and products that are not necessarily part of the standard sourced catalog, but still align with the organization's compliance and governance requirements. This enables procurement professionals to maintain oversight on spending and supplier selection, preventing maverick buying while streamlining the process for end users.

Additionally, this tool can be integrated with existing procurement policies, allowing organizations to keep track of off-contract purchases. It empowers employees to meet their immediate needs without deviating from company policies, thus balancing efficiency and control effectively.
