Boston, MA – October 20, 2011 – Emptoris, Inc. (“Emptoris”), a leading provider of strategic supply and category spend management solutions, today unveiled new mobile functionality for its Services Procurement (SP) solution as part of the latest release of that product. Emptoris Services Procurement 9.3 gives on‐the‐go HR and hiring managers real‐time access to the most advanced mobile functionality in the market for securing and managing contingent labor. Emptoris Services Procurement Mobile Web Access is available on all major mobile device platforms, including the iPhone®, Android® and Blackberry®, making it the most widely available solution in the services procurement industry.
“In today’s challenging and highly competitive business environment, it is critical for organizations to be laser focused on their business objectives – rather than mired in procuring and managing outsourced labor or services,” said Seth Wolins, general manager of services procurement at Emptoris. “With the greater agility, flexibility and productivity that Emptoris Services Procurement Mobile Web Access offers, organizations can focus on business priorities and gain a significant competitive advantage.”
The new mobile functionality helps HR and hiring managers accelerate the hiring and payment processes by giving them the ability to transact anywhere, anytime via a mobile device. With a streamlined user experience, Emptoris Services Procurement Mobile Web Access enables managers to quickly generate and manage contingent staff requests for more efficient processing and turn‐around. In addition, it enables hiring managers to quickly process work orders, thereby expediting the labor assignment process. Other benefits include the ability to process timesheets, invoices, expenses and receipts, and other critical documents, on the fly.
In addition to the Mobile Web Access, Emptoris Services Procurement Version 9.3 includes new mobile reporting functionality available as an Apple iPad® app and accessible via major mobile browsers. Powered by Business Objects®, the intuitive mobile reporting capability gives strategic services procurement executives the ability to closely monitor their hiring and services procurement activities, view and analyze data by relevant dimensions, manage compliance and take corrective actions quickly.
Both Emptoris Services Procurement Mobile Web Access and mobile reporting are available immediately as part of Emptoris Services Procurement Version 9.3. The latest Emptoris Services Procurement offerings are a part of the company’s larger Emptoris Suite Version 9 release, which was unveiled yesterday during the Emptoris Empower 2011 conference in Boston.
