The SAP Supplier Relationship Management application (SAP SRM) provides strategic value through sustainable cost savings, contract compliance, and quick time-to-value. Companies are equipped with tools to drive superior results through an end-to-end source-to-pay process. Activities such as spend analysis, category management, requisitioning, sourcing, operational contracts, invoicing, and supplier management are part of an integrated platform.

SAP Supplier Relationship Management (SAP SRM) is powered by SAP NetWeaver, the integration and application platform that unifies and aligns people, information, and processes across technologies and organizations.

SAP NetWeaver lowers total cost of ownership (TCO) for SAP SRM customers by enabling them to integrate easily in heterogeneous landscapes. It also allows easy integration with SAP's wide, homogeneous solution architecture, so you can implement other SAP solutions more quickly and profitably.

SAP SRM helps organizations optimize procurement operations with an integrated, scalable platform and business user interface that enables the full source-to-pay process.

SAP Supplier Relationship Management (SAP SRM) can connect you to your entire supply base-allowing multiple levels of suppliers, partners, and manufacturers to work together, while you reduce the cost of goods sold throughout the company.

SAP SRM simplifies and automates procurement. The SAP SRM process integrates supplier qualification, negotiation, and contract management more tightly and cost-effectively with other enterprise functions and their suppliers’ processes – through a single framework with support for multichannel suppliers.

The SAP SRM application is designed as a long-term foundation to secure the cost and quality advantages of center-led purchasing and broadened supplier involvement for enduring value and long-term results.
