Head of Digital Procurement Excellence at Maersk
I really liked Pactum’s work ethic. They said what they were going to do and they did it. They were very thorough and made my job very easy. A great team and good people.
- Frank LaPlante
Vice President Digital Transformation and Commercial IoT at WESCO
I didn’t think our industry was ready for Pactum’s cutting-edge offering. We digitally transformed our long-tail supply management strategy with their AI - and the results have been tremendous. We’re proud to be an early adopter.
- Senior Procurement Director at a Fortune 500 distributor
We are always looking for new technologies that not only leverage AI but also allow us to do higher quality work with the same amount of resources. Pactum has helped us negotiate more efficiently with long-tail suppliers, allowing us to cast a wider net of negotiation activities with suppliers we wouldn’t normally have the bandwidth to attend to.
- Procurement Director at a Fortune 50 retailer
Just wow! This is what negotiations should be. People tend to reach out from a position of strength and ask for discounts. But Pactum’s solution helps our team to focus on supplier growth first and foremost, which increases value for all.
