L’esecuzione digitale dei processi di procurement:

una realtà consolidata

La completa digitalizzazione dei processi di procurement nel settore dell’impiantistica industriale, è tuttavia
tanto più efficace quanto più capace non solo di integrare “digitalmente” in una unica piattaforma le
attività dei diversi stakeholders della supply chain, ma soprattutto nella capacità di riusare le informazioni
sviluppate durante l’esecuzione delle attività di progettazione, compresa l’ingegneria di dettaglio, con quelle
che impattano la pianificazione della costruzione, e la gestione dei materiali al site, garantendo l’integrità
dell’informazione.
A questo proposito, Smart Materials non ha rivali sul mercato per ampiezza dei processi coperti, profondità
della copertura, integrità delle informazioni, e tecnologia utilizzata.
