The company relied heavily on manual procurement workflows that required business users to create Oracle purchase requisitions directly from vendor quotes and BOMs. The process was time-consuming, error-prone, and difficult for requesters navigating complex legacy Oracle procurement interfaces. Manual data entry slowed sourcing and purchasing cycles while increasing the risk of inaccurate item selection, pricing mismatches, and inconsistent procurement execution.

The organization needed a modern procurement experience capable of simplifying requisition creation while supporting complex project and MRO workflows. The company also wanted to improve buying channel guidance, automate quote intake, and provide users with easier access to procurement knowledge such as suppliers, contracts, policies, and item master information.
