Many years ago, when the word "cloud" was mentioned, many people were still "unintelligible".
But now, the public has a higher level of understanding and recognition of "cloud", enjoying the convenience brought by "cloud".
Through the "cloud", you can listen to massive music anytime, anywhere, shop online, access photos and videos in the cloud disk, create, edit and share documents in the cloud, and get real-time traffic information on the map, etc. The summary is four words: convenient , Efficient!
Very relevant! !
If there is no "cloud", procurement work will become very cumbersome and inefficient.
A large amount of information and processes need to be handled manually, consuming a lot of time and effort to process and track procurement transactions. At the same time, due to scattered information and difficult data management, procurement may miss some important information, which may lead to wrong procurement decisions or bring unnecessary risks.
Let's take a look at the difference between purchasing without "cloud" and with "cloud" in the following scenarios:
1. Supplier management
2. Strategic Sourcing
3. Bidding and bidding
4. Purchasing collaboration
5. Contract management
Q: What are the cloud computing service models? And how should the "cloud" be deployed?
A: Cloud computing mainly has the following service models:
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): Provides infrastructure, such as computing, storage, and network resources, on which users can build their own applications, services, and solutions.
Platform as a Service (PaaS): Provides a platform for application development and deployment on which users can develop, test, and deploy applications without having to manage the underlying infrastructure.
Software as a Service (SaaS): Provides already built software applications that users can use directly over the Internet without installing and managing them.
In the process from IaaS to SaaS, the degree of cloudification is getting higher and higher. All applications and data are built on the cloud, which can help enterprises save IT management costs and improve productivity and collaboration capabilities.
If an enterprise wants to deploy "cloud", there are three common deployment methods: public cloud, private cloud, and hybrid cloud.
Qiqitong Procurement Cloud covers all categories and all-scenario applications, provides differentiated industry solutions, and can be deployed flexibly. It can control the entire life cycle management of suppliers, procurement processes, electronic bidding, contracts, procurement resources, procurement analysis, etc. , enabling enterprises to carry out procurement and supply chain business more conveniently, efficiently and cost-effectively.
At present, supply chain competition has become the norm, and digital transformation has become a major trend.
In the future, with the continuous development of cloud technology, the procurement and supply chain management of enterprises will become more digital, intelligent and sustainable. At the same time, enterprises also need to continuously learn and adapt to changes in new technologies to improve their digital capabilities, thereby promoting the sustainable development of enterprises.
