March 3, 1pm EST
Although in recent years, the reporting, analytics, and BI capabilities of procurement solutions have improved and advanced, they exist in enterprise solutions outside of our function as well. In this webinar, Aberdeen and Sisense will address the need to analyze increasingly complex data on a shorter timeline. They will also discuss ‘embedded’ analytics, or the ability to buy best-in-class solutions designed for their analytical functionalities alone and integrate them with any other enterprise solutions – procurement included.
