Case Study on Material Procurement Improvement in the Chemical Manufacturing Industry: Ube Industries, Ltd.
Successful cost reduction of several tens of millions of yen annually! We will introduce a case study where the scope of management has significantly expanded through punch-out integration with Monotaro.
Ube Industries, Ltd. faced issues with payments that bypassed purchasing, as well as compliance and internal control problems. Additionally, all administrative processes were conducted on paper, resulting in significant time and effort spent on interactions with suppliers. To address this situation, they aimed to optimize operations by implementing a purchasing management system and expanding the range of managed products, but they were not achieving the desired results. Therefore, they proposed integrating the "Monotaro Catalog Site" with their purchasing system through punch-out. The collaboration with Monotaro significantly expanded the scope of management. The workload for purchasing and site personnel related to spot orders for small items was reduced by 62% for each group, and overall work time was reduced by 10%. As a result, they were able to secure time for the core responsibilities of the purchasing department, namely the assessment and negotiation of large items, leading to cost reductions. [Implementation Effects] ■ 62% reduction in the workload for small item orders ■ Secured time for assessment and negotiation of large items ■ Successful cost reduction of several tens of millions of yen annually *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
