With the implementation of a group-wide digital procurement system, DIALOG seeks to provide an effective collaboration with our suppliers through improved communication and processing turnaround time, while reducing risks associated with sourcing and supplier management. All sourcing and management of suppliers for materials and services will be done using SAP Ariba.
There are resources available for you to learn more about DIALOG's Digital Supplier Platform under the User Guide section.
