Ariba provides spend management solutions that allow enterprises to efficiently manage the purchasing of non-payroll goods and services required to run their business. We refer to these non-payroll expenses as “spend.” Our solutions include software, network access, professional services and expertise. They are designed to provide enterprises with technology and business process improvements to better manage their spend and, in turn, save money. Our software and services streamline and improve the business processes related to the identification of suppliers of goods and services, the negotiation of the terms of purchases, and ultimately the management of ongoing purchasing and settlement activities. Procurement organizations have increasingly evolved over the last several years from providing a primarily tactical function to providing a strategic function in an effort to lower costs.
