Innovative Partnership for Streamlined Procurement Solutions
Redefining Public Procurement for Agencies
Virto Commerce, known for its excellence in B2B ecommerce solutions, has partnered with OMNIA Partners, the premier cooperative purchasing organization in North America, to revolutionize how public agencies procure goods and services. Their collaboration introduced OPUS, a groundbreaking digital procurement platform
Transforming the Purchasing Landscape
The launch of OPUS has extended its services to over 14,000 public agencies, significantly simplifying government procurement tasks. Traditional procurement frameworks often leave smaller government bodies struggling with fragmented systems and excessive compliance demands. OPUS alleviates these challenges by creating a cohesive and straightforward purchasing experience for all agencies.
Enhancing Efficiency and Speed
In agency procurement, responsiveness is key. The unique features of OPUS, including QuickConnect, enhance efficiency by allowing users to rapidly connect with appropriate suppliers. The platform integrates a user-friendly interface that streamlines purchasing processes, cutting down procurement times from hours to minutes.
Facts That Matter
OPUS boasts impressive statistics that underline its effectiveness:
- 7.5+ million SKUs from 630 vetted suppliers available for direct online procurement.
- 1,000+ QuickConnects initiated each month, linking agencies with suppliers seamlessly.
- A dramatic reduction in procurement time to 10 minutes for many purchasing tasks.
Built for Growth and Compliance
Virto Commerce has developed OPUS with insights from procurement professionals, ensuring it is aligned with current market needs and government agency workflows. The platform's adaptability allows for integration with existing procurement structures, creating a product that promotes easy vendor management and compliance adherence.
Pioneering Together
Virto Commerce's Founder & CEO, Alexander Siniouguine, emphasizes the collaborative nature of this venture, stating that the initiative is not just about creating another marketplace; it sets a new standard shifting how government procurement operates.
Looking Ahead: Expansion into Private Sector
After successful implementation in the public sector, OMNIA Partners has set its sights on expanding OPUS to private-sector organizations. With initial pilots already in place, they foresee significant applications for over 15,000 private-sector members across various industries, including a substantial portion of Fortune 1000 companies.
