Supplier registration and management system
A supplier management system centralizes the registry, contacts, and history of each supplier in one place, connected to purchasing and finance. Platforms like Jestor let you build that registry with ready-made templates, instead of scattered lists in spreadsheets and emails where no one knows which is current.
Why a scattered registry costs dearly
A supplier registered in three different places becomes three versions of the truth. Outdated data leads to wrong payments, duplicate purchases, and rework.
The root of the problem is the lack of a single source. Each area notes the supplier its own way, and the negotiation history is lost when whoever bought it leaves the company.
When the registry lives next to purchasing and payments, each supplier carries its own history. The operation stops relying on people's memory and starts trusting the record.
