Hidden Costs Breakdown

1

Implementation and Integration Services

high implementation

GEP SMART requires premium consulting and integration services for deployment, particularly for organizations with multiple ERP systems or complex procurement workflows. Implementation complexity increases with the number of business units and backend systems.

SMART by GEP (S2C) is used by all procurement professionals at my company in order to facilitate sourcing events, and author/store contracts once executed. This resolves visibility issues we have as we don't have a single instance of backend systems such as P2P or ERP so having a single instance of S2C helps to search for sourcing events and fully executed procurement contracts across all locations.

Training and Support Costs

While GEP provides support and training, organizations report navigation challenges and a learning curve for new users, potentially requiring extended training periods and ongoing support beyond initial onboarding.
