The new economy
The Gordian knot of companies
Milan, 26 May 2000 – we talk about the new economy as an obligatory step for corporate structures to adapt to the national and global market trend. In truth, the transition from the old economy to the new one involves a total change in technological and mental guidelines.
The re-engineering of internal processes that allows the speed so that everything happens in real time is in the internal connections and with external companies, various subjects, products and countries: the dematerialization of products which therefore become transferable in a virtual way.
These changes are not always achievable unless you decide to completely change the company structure by "cutting" with the old patterns. The creation of software dedicated to the problems of detailed lists, personalized for each individual customer, makes business virtualization possible today.
In this context, the use of outsourced e-procurement is crucial. Optimizing the supply of materials necessary for the production chain, avoiding excess or insufficient stock, supplier control, reorders, control of deviations, invoices and payment of the same, receiving in exchange a single monthly invoice, leads to an estimated saving of more than 50% on operating costs, costs which are often not always estimated within the companies themselves. In fact, each procurement process, whether it is a considerable material or a simple light bulb, costs companies, depending on their size, between 250,000 and 2,500,000.
The company Unitec (www.unitec.it), based in Germany and Italy, is the first in Europe to offer this customized complete cycle service.
Companies of international importance have already entrusted her with the task of being part of the new economy and therefore of cutting the famous knot. A free demonstration of e-procurement can be reached by visiting the Unitec website and requesting free access to the Netsourcing application which extends the revolutionary developments that will occur in business management in the new economy.
