Hillsborough Community College Streamlines Purchases with E-Procurement
Florida's Hillsborough Community College has adopted a new e-procurement solution in an effort "to streamline and leverage its procurement process," according to a news release about the move.
The school, with more than 42,000 students spread across six campuses, chose easyPurchase from ESM Solutions. The tool, delivered via a software-as-a-service model, will allow an unlimited number of users to shop and order from multiple vendors through a single interface.
Other features of easyPurchase include:
- Supplier management;
- Hosted and punchout contracted catalogs;
- Support for credit cards and purchase orders;
- Enterprise resource planning integration;
- Invoice management;
- Management for electronic forms;
- Textbook management; and
- Access via iPad or Android tablets.
"We are excited to work with Hillsborough Community College," said Dan Corazzi, CEO of ESM Solutions, in a prepared statement. "The college can now create, edit and approve requisitions anywhere, anytime using our SaaS-based solution, making both desktop purchasing and procurement on the go fast and easy."
