Source to pay
Requisitions, approvals, purchase orders and invoice matching configured to your delegation of authority.
Industry context
SCM and procurement solutions in telecoms
We implement procurement and supply chain platforms so requisitions, purchase orders, suppliers and plans run on the same data and approval rules.
Supply chain and procurement platforms connect planning, sourcing, purchasing and supplier management, so their value depends on clean item and supplier data and approval rules people follow. We configure source-to-pay and planning processes in stages and connect them to finance and inventory systems.
Telecom operators change their networks in agreed windows, under the obligations of TDRA in the UAE or CST in Saudi Arabia, and their customers notice every outage. Network engineers, product managers and care teams need to see the impact of each change on service before it is approved. Supplier rules differ by market: In-Country Value certification in the UAE and the local content requirements of the Local Content and Government Procurement Authority in Saudi Arabia, with ZATCA e-invoicing on supplier invoices there.
We hand over with runbooks and training, and can stay on under agreed service levels.
Alongside sector regulation, we often map delivery evidence to cross-industry baselines such as the UAE Information Assurance Regulation issued by TDRA, the NCA Essential Cybersecurity Controls in Saudi Arabia and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, which many risk reviewers already use.
How the work is organised
From design to stable operation, with the evidence the network operations centre, regulatory affairs and product leadership ask for.
Supplier management
Supplier onboarding, documents and performance records kept in one place, with a clear owner for each supplier.
Planning and inventory links
Demand and supply plans connected to inventory and orders, so buyers work from the same numbers as planners.
Telecom regulation
We map delivery evidence to the operator obligations set by TDRA in the UAE or the Communications, Space and Technology Commission in Saudi Arabia, including subscriber data protection requirements where they apply.
Local content and supplier compliance
Supplier certificates, local content data and compliance documents tracked with their expiry dates.
Spend reporting
Spend by category, supplier and entity, drawn from purchase orders and invoices rather than spreadsheets.
Checks before you start
A procurement programme is ready to start when approval limits are agreed and supplier data is clean enough to migrate.
- The regulatory reporting obligations the change touches have been listed.
- Procurement has approved its delegation of authority and listed the active suppliers to start from.
- Someone owns supplier data and has started removing duplicates.
