Sourcing

Fluenta One Sourcing covers the entire sourcing lifecycle in six phases on a single event-driven platform, eliminating value loss from fragmented tools.

Key elements: structured initiation with mandatory base data; controlled supplier management with invitation-based registration and two-level NDA protection; flexible procedure design with dynamic templates; automated process control with milestones; transparent, anonymous Q&A communication; and objective evaluation with weighted criteria and approval chains. Every step is recorded in an audit trail.

Vendor management

Fluenta One divides the full vendor lifecycle (Need to Exit) into eight phases, built on a continuous data backbone that eliminates value-eroding handoff points.

Key elements: risk-based tiering (Tier 1–4) to determine due diligence depth; automated onboarding with a vendor portal and bidirectional ERP integration; and continuous monitoring through scorecards with automated decision logic (e.g., CAPA trigger on Red status). The Vendor Hub serves as the central workspace, visualizing the vendor portfolio and supporting strategic decision-making (QBR/SBR).
