LONDON, June 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Global organisations continue to adopt e-Invoicing to achieve
world-class Procure to Pay
Tungsten Network, the global e-Invoicing network built on OB10,
has been selected by Caterpillar, the world's leading manufacturer
of construction and mining equipment, diesel and natural gas
engines, industrial gas turbines and diesel-electric locomotives,
to provide an e-Invoicing programme to its suppliers across
the UK and Poland.
To achieve world-class levels of efficiency within
Purchase-to-Pay functions, organisations are introducing electronic
invoicing to replace paper-based, manual processing that is prone
to mistakes and causes payment delays that can impact relations
with suppliers.
Invoice automation brings consistency to the way companies
handle transactions by improving purchase-order compliance and
payment on time, enabling VAT and contract compliance, and
strengthening supplier relations.
Edmund Truell, Group CEO at
Tungsten Corporation, said, "We are delighted to welcome
Caterpillar to Tungsten Network. This is yet another milestone as
we realise our vision to create the world's largest electronic
trading network."
