- Automated invoice generation and processing
- Centralized communication system for suppliers
- Secure and user-friendly interface for both internal teams and external vendors

The client also needed a flexible system that could easily scale with their expanding network of stores and vendors. They wanted the portal to support custom access roles, multilingual capabilities, and reporting tools to monitor vendor performance and procurement efficiency in real time.
