On Demand Supply Management Leader Continues Record Growth

ATLANTA -- Procuri, the global leader in On Demand Supply Management solutions, was just named to Manufacturing Business Technology's 40 Emerging Vendors list. The company achieves this honor for its pivotal role in driving operational excellence - and millions of dollars in cost reductions - via intelligent strategic sourcing, supplier management, spend analysis and contract management.

Selected by MBT's seasoned team of editors, the ranking creates a short-list of innovative technologies that are transforming the business of manufacturing. Inclusion in the list is the most recent market recognition of Procuri's fast-pace growth, fueled by high demand for supply management solutions available On Demand.

"This market has seen tremendous change, and we're incredibly proud of the role our team and our customers have played in driving the transformation," said Mark Morel, president and CEO of Procuri. "What's most exciting, however, is the evolution that's yet to come as procurement and supply management teams tap technology directly, and realize immediate operational improvements that compound, year after year."
